I'd have that claim dismissed over the way it labels specific cultures to slaves. All diversities, at least one person of every "race" has been a slave, one way or another (POWs were considered slaves, English captains had Spanish slaves as deckhands, Romans had Jesuits as slaves, and people in the same cultures were slaves and masters, including dictators and monarchies).

The officials are either ignorant to the fact that not just one culture was enslaved, or have become fearful due to so many jackasses that play the race card, or both... definetly both. How long has this "Master, Slave" classification existed anyway? Decades. What's unacceptable is that there are so many fearful men running things.

To counteract this personally, I'm going to refer to anything that I have more than one of as a "Master" and "Slaves". Like my best sword, it's totally better than my other swords, and they shall bend to its whim!

IDE, DNS, SQL, IPC and all kinds of other computer metaphors are the doing of evil white supremacist bigots.

If this clown was technically adept (which he/she is most certainly not) they would realize that the slave is almost certainly a peer metaphor.

However, some degenerate knuckle dragger was taking apart his emachine one day to swap the CDROM drive and was completely overwhelmed by the technical challenge, and saw "slave/master" and concluded "I NOT COMPREHEND TECHNICALS, BUT I NOT ITS SLAVE!"

So in comes the ACLU and its horde of non-technical lawers to demand that we all bow down to the least comon denominator once again.

I hope the judge burns this one.

You do not have the right to not be offended in this country.
