metric tool idiocy

[LCHIEN]

In Houston we call that a "(fill in the derogatory ethnicity group here) socket set."

Is there really such a thing as "derogatory ethnicity group", or is it just an ongoing propagation of personal opinion. When I call tools names they are just common curse words, especially when they make me bleed.

When I first learned the term Afroengineered, it was from my family. One of the black sections, who said it with pride. When I used it here, I was scolded for it, and debated about posting a family picture and asking for people to pick out who I was. I didn't see that term being any different then bubblegum and bailing wire is to rednecks. Where as N rigged, has other implications, besides prejudice, including poverty and lack of education, etc.

So yes, there really is such a thing, in my experience.

I fixtured several child care centers. One of the posters they had on the wall was great. It showed two little kids of different races playing together at a playground. The caption below read..."They have to be taught to hate".
