It's not about being PC, it's about being derogatory to a whole group of individuals based upon the actions of a few.
All those racial epithets are used in a derogatory manner. So what if they call us "Great Satan"? That's NOT jusitification to label all Iraqis or Arabs "Sand Niggers" or "Ragheads". That's the very same thing as labelling all people that serve in our armed forces "baby killers". It's doing the very same thing that woman did to Fireman. I refuse to sink to that level.
Yes, they are just words. But more than the words is the way people use them. The intent. *shrug* I'm not saying I'm better than anyone else, just that I think using those terms are insultive. And insulting a whole race or nationality of people is ignorant to me.
