To be honest, I never knew that "Paki" was a racial slur. I consider myself fairly educated, but I think most Americans do not know this. However once corrected I would make an apology, and change my behaviour. It's even in the dictionary: Pak·i Pronunciation Key (pk) n. Chiefly British Offensive Slang pl. Pak·is Used as a disparaging term for a person from Pakistan or neighboring countries or for the descendant of such a person. Good article. Thanks. Sherman Boyd
