Sometimes we Americans are so ignorant, such as never learning any of the indigenous languages, even when the government tries to exterminate them, such as the CIA in the 1970s sterilizing indigenous people including Peurto Ricans. The word "squaw" among First Native Americans is very offensive.
In WW II the military took advantage of the government learning disability and code talker First Americans could converse between plane conversations and no one but Native Americans could understand what had been said– even when two pilots would suddenly change their tactics and their strategics–the Apsaalookas and the Navajoes in particular.
Getting back to words, George Carlin was the best word smith of America. He even demonstrated how simple he could use every forbidden word on television by the way he did it and he never broke one TV rule.
Regarding "squaw" does the media permit the word "dick"?
