Pan, I haven't called you anything, let alone a racist or KKK member; neither has aceventura3 for that matter. My involvement with this topic is to try to focus on what I see as the larger issue here, the message outside of the racial aspect. If you'd like to discuss something other than race, I'll be happy to do so, but just like Janet Jackson, I think that the mainstream has missed the bigger problem here.
I can't view the video at work, so I can't make any comments one way or the other at this point other than to point out that I'm sure that if I dig long enough I can find white supremist on the radio or TV (Jerry Springer anyone?) to make a nice counterpoint if it is what I expect it is.
As for your example, maybe she just doesn't like you or your religion. I don't see where race is necessarily an issue unless you make it one. The only way we'll ever know for sure is if you ask her. Any opinions expressed here are pointless since we're talking about an individual who may or may not be an asshole and may or may not be crazy. I don't know, and actually, I don't care.
