They do not HAVE to engage in discussion with you on this topic.
This discussion and similar discussions have been attempted time and again on GC and members do not want to engage in said discussion once again. Should you have a implacable desire to discuss this, then find another venue, simple as that.
And just because YOU don't find white offensive doesn't mean it isn't. I know a young woman who can be/and often is categorized as "white" but the term is EXTREMELY offensive to her and she makes her feelings on the matter known should a situation arise.

And others have expressed that it is NOT offensive and that other terms are.
You aren't going to change my mind...so continue to waste time if wished. I will wait for someone capable of discussing and if no one wishes to, that's fine as well. In the mean time, I strongly believe that discussion is important for human beings to understand one another...you will not change my mind on that viewpoint, but continue to try if you wish.
