Words mean what we wish them to mean and the meaning changes as language is a dynamic not static tool.
Today many politically correct and over zealous people try to demonise words because they, personally, find them offensive.
Paki, for example, is a contraction of Pakistani or a person from Pakistan. If this word is racist then using the same criteria of a contraction many references to others must be the same. Brit for a British person, Jap for Japanese, etc.
However it is not simply a case of the contraction, it is the use of the word as an insult that makes it an insult or, in this case, racist.
