re: donhoop/racism
I took the definiton from MSN Encarta.
A racist remark needs to contain hatred/spite toward another human being who is different in some sense to oneself. This is the accepted definition around the world.
Racism and calling one a racist is not to be taken lightly in any way. Someone saying "Asians have black hair" does not make him/her a racist. It is merely a factual statement about people from Asia. Might aswell say "Asians are beautiful". In your eyes that would make him/her a racist or that remark about racism.
I find that odd, and I cannot see your view nor agree with you
