"Not offensive just outdated." What say you?

[Fire1]

Last census more than 56,000 people wrote in the term, Negro. I tend to think those 56,000 included the older black population who can't identify with 'black' or African American. According to the article, this seems to be a 'complex' issue, today. Personally, I'm offended by the term Negro because it's a term that was made up for us by this government and not one of our choosing.
