Message: [QUOTE="psconn, post: 2435390, member: 293"] Your "mixed race" grandchildren are part of a demographic that is growing 3 times faster that the population as a whole (Pew Research). Times are changing and in this case at least, it's for the better. A rise in that demographic indicates a trend toward acceptance that goes beyond "tolerence". I hope and expect that trend will continue to accelerate (simple math suggests it will). As the demographic grows, it will be more and more represented in any given group you look at that is not selected by race. MilfordHusky, I suspect you are a good person who loves his family and "our girls" as much as anyone. I appreciate that you see how your statement could be seen by others as troubling, however innocently it was intended. Folks will trivialize and dismiss such concerns under the label of "PC"... go for it. It used to be called polite and considerate and I'm ok with those labels. Happy holidays and GO HUSKIES. [/QUOTE]
