Black or African-American?

Oh, sheesh, just use Black. Are black people everywhere going to have to be hyphenated? BlackFinlandians and BlackKasicstanians? Where will it end?

And, yeah, while we're at it ... what the hell is Caucasion anyway???

Also ... I wish the Asians would get off their high horse and let themselves be labeled Orientals without getting so upset. Or pick something else, because people of Japanese, Korean, Chinese or other such ancestry who were born and live in America (or other places outside of Asia) are not Asian.
