QuoteBut before you start with Jesse define Racist?
Quote1: based on racial intolerance; "racist remarks"
His "Hymie town" comment defined him.
"No free man shall ever be debarred the use of arms." -- Thomas Jefferson, Thomas Jefferson Papers, 334
[ Since the definition of a racist is synonomist with a bigot, here is the dictionary definition.
__________________________________________________
No, you are wrong.
The two are not "synonymous".
There is a very large difference between a racist and a bigot.
Mainly that a "racist" believes that one race is inherently superior to another and(and this the important part) the superior race has a right to rule over the inferior race.

big·ot n.
One who is strongly partial to one's own group, religion, race, or politics and is intolerant of those who differ.

Then we must be using 2 different dictionarys. My Merrian-Webster lists bigot as a synonym for racist. It also fails to mention that a racist believes his race has the right to rule another.

If the book contains the definition you describe then the book is wrong.
No legitimate definition of Racist can leave out that the "superior" race has a right to rule the inferior.
Bigot, racist and predjudiced are three distinct words with three precise and very different meanings.
Archie Bunker is a bigot.
Hitler was a racist.

Bigot or Racist, it doesn't change the fact that he is an asshole.

My handy dandy desk dictionary has Racist defined as:
1: based on racial intolerance; "racist remarks" 2: discriminatory especially on the basis of race or religion.
He seems to fit.

Bigot (n)-someone obstinately and intolerantly devoted to his/her own beliefs, creed, or party.
Supremisist (n)-someone who believes in being surperior to all others in something.

Is that the best you got for avoidance of questions? Yeah? Thats what I thought.
I think I've made my point.
edit: no need for that second point...
I think when Jesus said "love your enemy" he probably meant don't kill them.
man this whole thread is nuts. most of the posters are white people complaining how blacks are going around with a chip on their shoulder, not realizing that they're doing the same thing!!
if you really wanna know how to get rid of the race card: First take the chip off your own shoulder, even when other people are playing the race card.
The best way to deal with this BS is ignore it. Go about your life & treat other people decently regardless of their, or your, race.
yes, fuck the race card, but quit whining about it.

I think many people on here could be racists. There are thousands of users, so some of them are bound to be.
Sorry for the "name calling" and "personal attacks".

Please explain this personal attack a little more in detail. I am a racist because I am preaching equality? I am a racist because I believe it is unfair for a certain race to demand special treatment?
I guess in this day and age you are damned if you do and you are damned if you dont.
