You can't deny that racial sensitivity differs culture to culture. What Americans consider racist, other cultures don't. That's why if the juror was not an American, this discussion would not be taking place. Did you see the audience laughing? That's the general public.

Whether you think they're right or wrong is up to you.
I don't care whether they're right or wrong. It's all relative. What I do find interesting is that the fact that you have people in this thread getting all bent out of shape at the thought of other people getting bent out of shape. People are reflexively offended by the perceived reflexive offense of other people.
