I get blasted for saying the word negro -- even when I try to explain through the threats and screams that it is a less offensive term than black and a less silly term than African American.

Incidentaly, in response to another poster, one has to be at least 12% negro black to constitute as a black minority so B. Hussein Obama cannot even be considered black by juridical law.

Of course. It's like when Niger, the country, used to be pronounced Ni-jer (as in 'jar'). Now the pronunciation is Ni-gere, with the szhuh emphasis - all so some liberal airhead activist newsreader on TV won't screw up and say the "N" word.

BTW, I'm not afraid to say NEGRO, I was illustrating a point.

Negro is a rather ordinary word that means black in Spanish and Portugese, nothing else.

In the spanish speaking world, where I am, negro simply means black. a ‘negrero’ is literaly a black driver/manager, or better known as a slave driver. negro is not a negative connotation here. so why should it be where you are? PC sucks!
