But I will.

UserNSAv32, you could use some education. PCIntern made an attempt to enlighten you as to ethical conduct.

You have bought into the idea that if we just cut out those people (the one's with assholish behavior) we'll be fine. No, we won't. Better to point out their poor behavior without behaving as assholes ourselves.

I don't tolerate racist behavior. I call people on it when I see, hear, taste or smell it.

Those who behave that way out of their ignorance, stupidity or just plain mean spirit are in a bad way. That's my thought on it. Ignoring their behavior is not an option, but neither is cutting them out of society. Kinda like saying... everything would be fine if I was a dictator.
