Thank you for the vote of support.

People are entitled to opinions, and ignorance is no crime either, as it's curable by education. However, I will speak up when someone (Haq) expresses what I viewed as a racist slur. I don't do enough to make the world a better place, and the examples of Gandhi and MLK are humbling. That Ish brings up the irrelevancy of the caste system the exists in large parts of India, or slavery, as a defense of this slur trivializes the tragedy and evil of both slavery and the caste system. I think I agree with you - I've said what I'll say on this thread and - ish is ishtory.
