Default Re: A lot of serious things are said in \"jest\", Racisim in everyday l

Ultimately, I care a lot more about what people DO than what they say. I grew up in the "progressive" Northeast, where everyone professes belief in equality but nobody I knew had any black friends. Then, I went to school near the Mason-Dixon line, where you would hear "racist" comments all the time, but people of different races worked and hung out together much, much, more than in the Northeast. So who's more racist?

Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me. I don't give a flying [censored] what most people think.
