but calling us WOPS is, to my family, a pretty heavy racial slur.

As a child, I witnessed by slight, but very gritty, grandfather drop a much larger man with one punch after being called a dirty little WOP. He would also only tolerate being called Dago by fellow Italians.

I think it's time we retire these words.
