I don't think anyone has to put up with having a slur about their nationality hurled at them. Whether they're paying rent or not.

Mike knew what he was getting into when he moved in, but it was rent-free.

It was mentioned several times through out the show that Gloria paid for everything while she worked part time. Especially when her and Mike or Archice would get into a fight.

No it's Hawaiian class. Hau'oli Makahiki Hou from my people to you! And you don't need the comma after the word "English".

So, if my daughter married a white man and they were living with me and I kept calling him the "H" word, he should just ignore it?

The thing was - Archie degraded Mike the first time they met. It was Mike's decision to move in anyway. The same with the Willises on The Jeffersons. George kept calling Tom a h____ but they kept coming back. Mike took the free ride, knowing what he was going to have to put up with.

Calling him "Meathead" was one thing, "pol_ck", like I said, regardless of the living arrangement, is beyond the pale.

One of the points of the show was to show how ignorant Archie was. Norman Lear was surprised with how people took to him.

Yah. Lear figured everybody would see him in a bad light. That was his intention.

Carroll O'Connor certainly worked hard on the character - off-screen and on.

And often clashed with Lear over the character, the production, everything.
