I and others on here have been called racist and most Tea Party/Conservatives are called racist by some on this forum.
Let me state were I am maybe that will clear it up.
Do I know people of color and like them? Yes.
Do I want bad things to happen to people of color? NO
Would I vote for someone of color who reflects my beliefs? Yes.
Do I want people of color to get fair and equal treatment in all situations? Yes.
Do I favor whites over people of color? No, I go with who is in the right.
Do I give law enforcement the benefit of the doubt? Yes.
Do I believe people of color should get some special treatment for jobs and advancement? Yes, within reason, we need them in positions of authority.
Do I believe that the lack of family values and supervision contributes to the disproportionate number of minority crime. Yes.
Do I believe Americans, today, are racist, no, I just believe they are very concerned about social issues and crime that is more pronounced in minority communities.
