You can't say "cotton picking mind" to a black person. Of course he would need to apologize. It doesn't mean anything if you say it to me, but it means something else when you say it to a black person. It's like saying "your Momma" to a friend who is an orphan. You can't be that tone deaf. That being said, we should all be able to say "that's an honest mistake" and walk away after he apologizes.

**** happens. I said "run boy" to a black football player on the TV with a black friend there. I did not mean anything by it. It's seriously the most harmless thing you can say that can be construed as racist, but I still apologized to him immediately and said I didn't mean it that way. He accepted and said he knew my intent and wouldn't be offended either way, but it was no sweat off my sack to apologize, in case I had offended. This is how adults adult.

Didnt you say that you have spent some time in Asia in the AF? Serious question...and I dont mean to offend anyone...is it easier to tell Asian people apart when you are immersed there? They all look very similar to me, especially the guys. Maybe it's that they all have the same or similar hair color and texture..and are almost never overweight unless they move here and get lazy like Americans..but I see the Japanese soccer team, or any other team..and it's really hard to tell them apart. Seems like facial features are about all you have to go by..and you sure can't see those running down a soccer field...

Apologies of this offends anyone. I truly dont mean to. I have nothing against Asians, and think some of their women are beautiful..I often use Asians as an example when other minorities complain that they are at a disadvantage against white folk...Asians generally kick our butts in academics, and commit almost zero crime. I certainly respect them and their varied cultures, depending on which country they came from.

I was in Pakistan/Afghanistan Asia, not the good Asia.

2 places where everyone looked the same to me. Iceland and Sierra Leone.

Fury as feminist activist says she's 'confused' seeing black man with pro-NRA and Tea Party bumper-stickers | Fox News

An activist author ignited a social media firestorm on Thursday after saying she was left “very confused” seeing a black man with a pro-NRA and Tea Party bumper-sticker on his car.

Kimberley Johnson, a feminist contributor to HuffPost and the spokeswoman for the national advocacy group We Are Woman, was slammed for questioning why a black person would not embrace progressive politics.

“Out on the road the other day I saw an affluent black man driving a BMW with two bumper-stickers. One was pro-NRA and the other one was a Tea Party sticker that read, ‘Don't tread on me,’” she wrote in a now-deleted tweet. “This left me very confused.”

It is in his slogan "make America great again." It implies that society was better back in the day when minorities were constantly attacked and disenfranchised. He ran on a platform of fear and hatred. It worked.

Was it racist of me to get a little worried for my dog when the Asian lady at the Chinese place was saying what a nice looking dog she was?
