Think about this: Imagine a Caucasian man saying something bad about an African American, you are very sensitive about that, and would be quick to think "Racist!" but, imagine an African American man saying something bad about Caucasians. Now would you go up to the Caucasian and say "Quit being Racist!"? Would you go up to the African American and say "Quit being Racist!"?. I may be wrong here but have you ever heard of another race other than Caucasian be accused of Racism? Caucasians, i do admit, HAVE made a rather bad name for them slaves with the whole slaves thing :/ and the whole 1980's and down but we are very sensitive on it now, and it will not be tolerated, but what if you hear an African America saying mean things about Caucasians? Will that be tolerated? Correct me if I'm wrong.

it is still a matter of racism if a caucasian says a wrongful thing to another caucasian. i dont believe in the fact though that two wrongs make a right. i do understand though that racism will never end in the world but we can put a hold on how far it will succeed in this life. it should be dealt with as a criminal matter because of the constitution saying all men are created equal. but we shouldn't have the right to say words that will degrade on others
