hahahaaaaaa... Amerigo Vespuci named the new world after himself too... so maybe the new PC should be "Native Peoples of the New World before Amerigo became so narcissistic"

just a thought

The PC term for american indians is native americans. No one I know says Indians anymore, this was a result of mistaken identity on the part of Christopher Colombus.

I find this amazing too, you know. Christopher Columbus comes to America in 1492. I'd have to say at the most by 1493 he and his crew figured out they were NOT in India, however for 500 years the term "Indians" stuck for the native Americans. Only very recently have we begun to phase that term out. #######??

You've got to love us Americans. India is a country in Asia and yet we don't refer to Indians as Asians, however, India is clearly not in North America and we refer to the natives as Indians.

I just found that funny. Carry on.

Isn't that because someone didn't know where they were going when they landed here? Thought they found a new route to India and landed here instead and labeled us "indians"

It isn't PC to call native americans "indians" anymore anyway.. we are native americans

The Eastern band of Cherokee prefer to be called indians, as to them the term native american means anyone born in the US.

LONDON - Authorities in London thwarted a terrorist plot to blow up an aircraft in mid-flight between Britain and the U.S. using explosives smuggled in hand luggage, police said Thursday.

Police arrested a number of people overnight in London after a covert counter-terrorist operation lasting several months, police said in a statement.

Security at the country's airports was increased and additional measures were put in place for all flights.

British Airways advised all passengers that they would not be permitted to carry any hand baggage on board any aircraft departing from any airport in the country.

Let me guess the terrorists are Jews from Sweden
