Last time i checked Japanese wasnt a race... its a a person/place/or thing originating from the country of japan.

SO saying jap is short for japanese, i dont see how thats racists, like i said japan is a country not a race.

The
Japanses People's ethnicity (IE race) is asian

Thus in my humble opinion how can the word "jap" be considered a racist slur, since in all good intention its really an abreviation of the word japan/japanese.

Just my 2 cents in the bucket.
