Census Defends the Term ‘Negro’ as ‘Inclusive’
This post is simple. It simply points to the ludicrous nature of an overbearing criminal enterprise known as the Federal government, in this case the US Census. For anyone that didn’t get the memo, the term ‘negro’ is just a tad outdated and although I am not a fan of political correctness, I certainly wouldn’t use it in regards to my black friends or the American black population at large. The press outlets that are reporting this ‘negro’ story are missing the central point – that this is an example of the criminally inept nature of our giant leviathan beuracracies in America. Listen to this:
NEW YORK (CBS) – …Question #9 on the this year’s census asks about your race. One of the boxes you can choose is “black,” “African American,” or “negro,” all placed next to the same box. Ingram said it’s not a word he uses to identify neither himself nor anybody else.
Now get this, the Census is (obviously) privy to upset of the term ‘negro’ on the Census form in NY and have been inundated with complaints.
(CBS) - But census officials disagree, saying they found some older African Americans identify themselves that way and they’re trying to be inclusive. In a statement, they said: “Results from the census in 2000 showed that a number of respondents provided a write-in response of ‘negro’ when answering the question on race.”
Why stop there? I know plenty of folks in the entertainment sector that refer to themselves and blacks as n#$%%$s, why not include this word as well? If we are to be ‘inclusive’ why stop at any word?
However, even that is not the central point to me here. Although this kind of bullheadedness points to criminal incompetency it is also foretelling of something far more sinister and evil – Collectivism.
The CBS so
urce is running a poll that asks if the term ‘negro’ should be removed. I think it should. I think that it should along with any other question of race or term otherwise that will be used by our coercive government to shepard the American public into different collectivist identity groups thereby destroying the concepts our wonderful country (once) stood for. Even more, as BBCW points out, the Feds will undoubtedly spend untold thousands, (or millions), to remove the word ‘negro’ from the Census in NY.
Asinine and ludicrous, we need to dismantle and eradicate nearly every branch of the Federal government.
