These people are racists ......

[Stinky The Clown]

They're hideous, they're detestable, they're not worthy to breathe the same air as normal people.

They are racists. They would wish for all black people to be killed. Or at least sent back where they came from.

Some other examples of racists:





And there are plenty more.

These people, on the other hand, are not racists ......



You may not like their politics. You may not like their tactics. You may not like them. That's fine.

But they are not racists.

Here's the definition:

rac·ism /ˈreɪsɪzəm/
–noun
1. a belief or doctrine that inherent differences among the various human races determine cultural or individual achievement, usually involving the idea that one's own race is superior and has the right to rule others.
2. a policy, system of government, etc., based upon or fostering such a doctrine; discrimination.
3. hatred or intolerance of another race or other races.

Now some of you might try to parse that to make your case against them. But to call them that is to cheapen the impact of the very word.

This latest flap is worthy of criticism. You can howl about it all you want. Her words were not nice. They may even have been (actually, they probably were) pure pandering to bigoted people. It wouldn't be the first time that has happened .... by them or by others. And it will not be the last. Its called politics. Some politics is high minded and some is in the gutter. It may even be **about** race.

But it isn't racist, they're not racists.
