Default Re: Ron Paul\'s racist comments

Anyway...

I asked you earlier in this thread to explain what exactly is racist about the statements in question. Until you are able to do that, you have no business calling anyone associated with those statements racist.

Racism is viewing people who share the same skin color strictly as a group and asserting that they are all alike, rather than judging them based on their individual characteristics.

If you don't think that those comments are inherently racist....then that is just something we're forever disagree one, because bigotry stems from the heart, not the mind, and it can't be easily changed. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

I never said I don't think they're racist. I said I don't know. I want you to explain how they're racist. Since you can't do so, I'm inclined to think they aren't, but I still haven't made up my mind.
