We've all already tried to explain this to you, but you're not willing to listen. He was brave, and you're wrong. He's not a racist, he's a community leader trying desperately to fix what he sees is a systemic problem in his culture. But Pan the non-racist wants to berate him and have him lose his job.

Personal attack. off topic, what is you opinion on the OP.
It IS racist. I have stated I have no problem in the message he gave.... it's where he gave it and how he abused his authority and position to give it.
You still do not deny had it been a white judge doing the exact same thing... you would call him racist and demand his job.
Sorry, that is hypocritical and a double standard I cannot nor will not accept and be silent about.

But this quote above obviously means NOTHING to "civil rights leaders" today.
This judge by throwing out anyone not of a particular color... judged a man by his skin color and not by the content of his character and THUS continues racism and those that defend this bullshit continue to keep racism alive and very negative, instead of finding ways to positively work through the problem.
It should be looked at the same no matter what color/sex/ethnicity/religion the judge was from and he people he kept in the courtroom were.
Double standards by virtue of their existence creates prejudice. Anyone who argues well it's ok or you just don't understand.... etc... only keeps feeding the beast.
By exposing the beast, showing what the double standards are and speaking out against them will positive solutions be built from.
