I didn't take it as a personal attack (and didn't downvote you) but I don't agree. There was an actual rule in place that Rosa Parks had to stand up against, not just terminology she was uncomfortable with. I think it's not safe to assume people who are from minority groups or people from underprivileged backgrounds have a problem with this (source, myself). When you experience actual racism, something like this looks pretty silly. I'm in agreement with antirez. I wouldn't use these terms in a new project, but their use for the past half a century should be pretty uncontroversial and definitely not cause for mass mobbing/shaming...
