458 Language cleanup

Sometimes the convolutions to revise our language so that nothing offends anyone really are ridiculous. However, I am a bit surprised that a bi-partisan bill to remove “colored” when referring to race from the Ohio Revised Code insurance laws hasn’t been done before. That wasn’t even an acceptable term when I was in college over 45 years ago before all the political correctness started! H.B. 233, 125th General Assembly, Ohio. Apparently that part of the Code wasn’t looked at often.
