The reply from the black officer:

Case dismissed.

If you do not know what something means then they cannot cause you
offence, the offence is not complete




The solution is so obvious. We should *educate* people about all the words
in common usage that they should be offended by. The more arcane the word
is, the better -- that way we get to show off how educated and clever (and
therefore superior) we are.
