> We show racial insensitivity. They (and it doesn't matter which "they" you refer to), as a repressed minority, subvert our vitriol to sardonically weaken our merciless blows.
By "vitriol" and "merciless blows" you're admitting that Imus' said racial insensitivity does not come across as harmless to you even. I think that is why people are upset.
Don't do that... it is inconsiderate to all the people who are going about their lives. How would you feel if you were at work and all of a sudden got 2,000 e-mails from someone you don't know about an issue you maybe don't have anything to do with? Disrupting potentially innocent people's daily lives you're giving the Linux community a bad image. I would say, kde should entertain this silly complaint, change the name, and make the product better and when it has a superior product it will speak for itself. Then Adobe will look dumb, Linux looks good, everything is cool. Personally, I'd still use KIllustrator no matter if the name was changed.

Whatever sentiment caused you to use the word the first time is still there. Do yourself a favor and do not use the word ever again, period.

I don't know, why don't you try it, so you can get arrested and thrown in jail.
