PANCHITA linda, name calling is not a powerful tool. Knowledge and good argumentative statements are for the wise. The more we use the word racist, the more the actual situation converts itself into a racist issue and not the original basis for solving a problem.  I am ignoring the racist variable altogether when formulating my opinion because this is an economic issue. Be objective when standing up for a cause. Subjectivity is cause for strife.

Short answer is they are idiots.  I see a human being the same as me, no matter their skin tone.

There is, and no you are not the only one. I am not offended by racial slurs at all, I was raised to love everyone regardless of skin color. If people want to act ignorant around me, than so be it. \n\nJust roll it off, and try one by one to change the world :)

Hell, I thought it was all this time!\n\nOf course, the idiots have already came out and started to throw around the "R" word (racist).  Bunch of damn fools!

I agree. And NO, you are not a racist. What you are is intelligent, observant and very cognitive of your surroundings.\nMost people, sadly don't have the open minded gift of seeing what others can't.\nCount your blessings that you're not in the mass majority of the population that can't even see their own hand in front of their face.\n\nDon't let other people dictate your emotions sweet pea.  YOU ARE RIGHT ON TRACK!

Loaded question: Sounds like you yourself are glad that you are not black or Asian. Sounds like you are nice little bigot.

I've noticed that here, too.  You don't have to mention anything about any particular race of human beings; just say you are against all illegal immigration in the USA, and you are jumped on and called a racist.  I do know that it is because they cannot reasonably and logically justify the presence of illegal immigrants and so they resort to name calling because of their lack of anything to back up their stance.  Usually, too, I have found that most of those who back illegal immigrants are either in a romantic relationship with an illegal, have close friends who are illegals, have family members who are illegal, sometimes are illegal themselves, or own a business in which they prosper by hiring illegals and benefiting from their slave labour by paying cheap wages without having to pay the employers share of taxes, etc. (thereby cheating legal immigrants and American citizens), or like to also pay cheap by hiring illegals to do their housework, yardwork, childcare, etc. (again, benefiting personally from illegals).

Pancha, you have called people racists...myself included. Here is a recent sample: http://answers.yahoo.com/question/;_ylt=Ao79ZwfZUjK8baIY_3_7XlYjzKIX?qid=20060608163620AA4HeyX\n\nI, too, have called people names such as "racist loser" and the like...so I'm not knocking you. But you asked for proof, and I've got some.\n\nMost people would not be able to find too many with your new profile, because you were deleted a few times. I, however, still have them all archived on my Q&A. Here are a few examples of the many times you were involved name calling:\n\nHere's a link where you used the racial slur “crackers.”\n\nhttp://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=Atm31UNCSv7N.9kxtHrp56Lsy6IX?qid=1006032810512\n\nAnd here’s a link where you used the racial slur “redneck.”\n\nhttp://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=AmooPAy9QP6HLcFFd4fFXDbsy6IX?qid=1006041005791\n\nHere you answer a question “Do people really think is possible to deport twelve million people?” by saying “Only the ignorant racist. “\n\nhttp://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=AmooPAy9QP6HLcFFd4fFXDbsy6IX?qid=1006041305868\n\nHere you call everyone "racist bastards":\n\nhttp://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=Atm31UNCSv7N.9kxtHrp56Lsy6IX?qid=1006041219787\n\nHere you call someone a “stupid redneck.”\n\nhttp://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=AtHcmyNTvmcE350hze3zhb_sy6IX?qid=1006041216535\n\nYou've called me many names including wrongly calling me a liar...as I'm sure you will recall.\n\nAnyway, there’s way more where that came from, but you get the point.

Is this a joke?!?!?!\n\nI don't even know if I think this guy is serious or not!\n\nSeriously though, if he is, then I have 2 major concerns\n\nOne, I hear some people say only white people can be racist!  Ha!  Watch this video if you believe that\n\nTwo, people actually clapped for that!  \n\nMy goodness, what a world

I haven't seen the writings your referring to, but it's possible they're prejiduced, but not racist. Prejiduce is logical, racism is terrible.

it sounds like it's only racist if you try really hard to make it be.  But I don't think most people would think it was...unless of course the context of the phrase is in a racial matter.
