    Happy Easter, Guest!

Has anyone ever broken THEIR jaw?

I know that we live in a pollitically correct culture now, but I'm pretty sure you can still say a couple of black kids were messing with some white kid without it sounding racist. When you say african-american, and caucasian, it either means you're filling out a police report, or you're trying to hard.

You never know, so I'm covering the bases. People are easily offended these days and all it takes is for one one person on the Hype to get offended and make it into an issue.

I'm African-American myself, you know? But as I said people are politically correct so I'm avoiding any drama.

But yes, it is/was a true story. :csad:
 
Never had it broken but had it badly bruised and swollen for about 2 weeks after taking a punch off some bouncer outside a club.

I describe people as black or white in my paperwork all the time....so I definitely agree with the "trying too hard" part.

Black and white are accurate and common physical descriptors that are well known and widely used. There's no reason not to use them.

It's the equivalent of saying that someone has blue eyes or brown hair.
