My dear,
It's not a 'What-if' scenario..... they've been doing it... they always do it because they like to do it..... my only point is that since it's a term 'coined' by them while being at peak of 'hatred'.. so it should not be a matter of joy or pride for us and be accepted to feel ourselves 'comfortably in the numb'.....
Have an example..... do you know where the trem "MOSQUE" came from?????..... When Muslims were being wiped off from Europe (specially in Spain) in late days of 'Khilafat' (what they call it the 'Caliphate'), then Muslims used to get shelter in 'Masaajids'... but even there, they were chased, searched out and murdered...
AND... THEN SOME OF THEIR LORDS had said "these places {Masaajids) are 'Mosques'... because 'We kill them (Muslims) there like 'Mosquitoes'!!!!!"
This is none of my any bloody assumption... but the history... that's why all Muslims who're a bit interested in history, never call a 'Masjid' as 'Mosque'..... Now please tell me... should we accept the term 'Mosque' as a pride or a source of power & joy?????
Regarding feeling pride about gora's talk... believe me.. I've personally seen and experienced that some of our such 'Desi Loag' who are really living quite very well and proudly there... are sunk simply in their 'sneering looks'!!!... let alone their sneering talk, gesture, call or slang!!.....
In the end.... you're right that 'Paki' is an attitude, but... also 'UNLUCKILY' it was founded by some our own brothers..... it didn't just come out of blue....
