I'm sorry for calling you a coward. I shouldn't have. Also, I don't even think you are one.
It's easy to type things on the computer so far away and detached from the souls at the other screens. I think there's a similarity between that and this "Jap" business.
I live in a place where there are many, many Americans of Japanese ancestry. The vast majority weren't around or weren't "of age" during WWII. A much smaller number of them, dying out now, were a part of those who fought against the Nazis in Europe.
One *never* uses the word "Jap" here unless he seriously intends to be derogatory, because to the Americans who happen to look Japanese, it *is* derogatory.

I regret our disagreeable exchange as well.
I can appreciate your point of view. I just get infuriatingly stubborn sometimes. (Surprised?) ;o)
Best wishes.
