evans 2002:
You asked: "Well Alan what do you call people of African ancestry who were born in the U.S.? .... I call them Americans... but then that's what I call anyone (white, Asian, Native, black...despite what Jesse Jackson might preach.... most blacks have no problem being called black) born or naturalized in the U.S."
Believe it or not, I too call them AMERICANS. As for the "amen", you have it. By the way, I too believe that firearms ownership is a "civil right".
As for blacks, as well as members of other minority groups, I'm a member of one too, I believe that they had best take a rather close look at their "leaders", sometimes self annointed, as well as their "spokepersons", sometimes self-declared.
