Umm, it's a scientific term for people with less of a certain type of pigment in their skin (I think it's called melanin). There are 3 basic scientific races:
Caucasian (now called Caucasoid)
Mongoloid
Negroid

Exactly. If a black guy wants to call me a cracker, I really don't care. I've actually been called racist before on the account of just acknowledging race.
And on "racist jokes": I seriously think they're funny. What's the difference between that and laughing about how women can't drive or guys leave the seat up??? What's so wrong about laughing about our differences???
