@paninid Hindi, I can understand, bc it's the tongue of so many North Indians in different states, but Gujarati? Plus, you're forgetting Bangladeshis, the Bangali-speakers will have a field day with that.
@paninid Oh, it's that whole "Indian? Dot or feather?" thing. Haha, isn't it funny that Christopher Columbus made a mistake, and instead of murdering all OUR ancestors, he came here and murdered these people instead. I don't think he ever actually touched down on the U.S. landmass, did he?
Ya, @Sampath Pāṇini ® -- not all Indian Americans have a heritage from Asia. How 'bout that. Perhaps it was your intent to make the distinction by avoiding the term "American Indian", hm? Doesn't actually work tho.
People, it's called "common usage" in English. Even Native Americans call themselves Indian, and there's no defense for anybody except for the people who don't get which you're talking about. Spare a thought for people who have to listen to you because without them, you're just spittin' in the wind. The audience is who I'm defending.
