Oh brother. Here in the South, I’ve heard white men refer to each other as boys (instead of guys and when in the same age range), but I can understand why some may choose to be offended.

Exactly. In the South (these days), "boy" is not a racist epithet ... example, "he's a good ol' boy."

But I'm sure there will be an outcry. This whole race thing has gotten ludicrous and tiresome. And my, isn't Obama doing a good job of healing racial divisions? Heh.
