Further, it does not fall into the same objectional category as nigger, spic or ginny because one has no control over his skin color or nationality

I have never been one to use 'nick names' for any one or group. I do wonder how many think about the above names given to others. I have heard Hispanic use some of those names but they can complain to high heaven to about anything that does not have sugar sprinkled on it. I still prefer INVADERS. I don't see how they can complain about that but I am sure they can/will. This is my first time to even hear the word ginny
