RE: Klingon Language Clan
I beg to differ!
We started off as African then we moved to niggers, then negroes, then
colored, then black , now it's African American. Through all of this each
time society has accepted these changes; so if I consider my self Klingon
who is to say that I am not.
I do consider myself Klingon, I plan on changing my name to valQIS, when I
fill out an application I select other then I write tlhIngan in the space.
Yes, I'm in control of all my sanity, this just happens to be a race of
humanoids that I can Identify with, it suits me and I see no reason for
anyone to not accept it.
valQIS 'IHwI' tIQ

Even if the language exists, the race does not so who would you be
insulting?
