>>You wouldn't suppose that it might be a negative reference to West Indian slaves now would you?

For that to be true I would have had to have known that maroon referred to slaves. I assure you that I did not, and that is apparent from the context. I doubt anyone else knew of that oblique meaning.

>>Your use and adoption of it speaks volumes about your sensitivity to others.

The above statement is an actual slur and your should be ashamed both because of your McCarthyism and your insensitivity.
