<HTML>Hi
The word in which you have exchanged characters with points is literary and most valid for the denotation of the man with black colour of a skin on Russian. Any synonym can wear more or less disrespectful character. I know, that in other languages this word is perceived negatively. For this reason I shall not utillize this word when speak on Russian at the presence of the Afro-American.
It is not clear for me why one of words mention here are insulting, and others are not such. As if one have told me, that 1726354 is insulting combinations of digits, and 4536271 is normal and valid combination. I am ready to check in it and to utillize the second combination since the rules of decency require this.
I do not have personal antipathy neither to the Germans, nor to the Japanese, or to any other peoples. It does not mean, that I have forgotten and has forgiven crimes which made some of them. From my point of view not correctly to consider all people criminal if some representatives are guilty even of the heaviest crimes. Any sane man, I hope, can understand me and intentionally will not name the people thus that it was unpleasant to them.
At the same time I do not see necessity to object to that style which utillize respected Capt Duffy. This man saw in the life more, than the many of us and probably has the right to that style of behaviour which considers for hymself correct. He does not impose the judgement and style to anothers. We should validly concern personally to Capt Duffy. If for someone his messages call negative feelings, stop to read, please, and the problem will be easily solved.
