This sort of casual passive racism is quite common in white so-called "conservative" circles.

And, I know damn well the more mainstream rightwing media outlets (Fox, EIB, Clear Channel, etc.) are, most likely cooking up some bullshit and gauging the climate to see if it's safe to release it. Bundy had become the perfect "Cowboy on a horse, waiving the American Flag" symbol for their anti-federal government campaign and I have little doubt that they would love to shore up the damage his idiocy has caused.

Problem for that is the fact that the NYT got the damning video out ahead of the rightwing propaganda machine and blindsided them with it. We all saw and hear what the jackass said in his own words. Anything you hear from the right is damage control and little more.

Hell Steve are you going to box up people and cauterize them. lol

I see racist comments all over this board alone so is racism common to liberals.

One more question does it matter who one is racist to?

You should hangout with the black cultures and see there thinking as well. I have a wide variety of friends and family and life experiences with all people. I'll say this again all races are more comfortable within there own community, so are all racist.

Quite right, I know my fellow mountain state Westerners well being raised there, and yes, we all have a ways to go to get to "post-racial" as this issue and the Martin/Zimmerman confrontation amongst other numerous examples show.

I will probably never see the day when "All Parties" look at people as individuals as just people. Nobody is any better than the other in any race as such should all be considered equal in all aspects of life.

When special interest is given to a race I see it as racist.

I remember how "special" white people were, pre-civil rights. Some still believe that.

So would you want revers racism to correct that?

Are we moving forward dwelling on history 180+ years removed or even 60?
