I say no!

But some annoying guy is saying otherwise...

Sounds like a good a time as any to make a poll.

No! for the same reasons I said before!

Nope

there, i voted yes. you can be racist in this day and age and people wont do a damn thing about it. thats why there are racists, because you can be racist!

Being a racists and racism being accepted are different things!

It depends on what you mean by "accepted".

If you mean that people think nothing of it, and see it as just a point of view, then no, it is not accepted. Most people will think that racism is bad, and shouldn't exist and are offended when they hear something that is racist.

However, if you mean because it's an opinion or belief and by law there isn't anything anyone can do about a belief or opinion unless it's bringing physical harm to someone, then it is accepted, by it's forced acceptance.

no, you can state you are a racist. that you hate ethnically diverse people. and you are allowed to do it. can you argue that fact?

what, do you think im a racist? no, im just stating that racism is accepted by the laws of the united states. i cant stand it when people blatantly deny the truth for sake of personal opinion.

It's the freedom of speech. People can say they are racist doesn't mean that it is accepted.

People can say what they want, that is why we are a free society's in most places. People can be racist but that dose not make it right. But because of the law of freedom it is protected under the law to believe it, not practices it out side of demonstration

IMO.... Racism is not acceptable... I think it is vile and people that believe in racist ways should come to a quick and painful demise.

Racism is not accepted by the everyday American, or other country natives even. However, legally it is, as long as it does not involve anything violent.

BTW, AC you're doing well.

according to the law, its right enough not to send you to jail. i dont believe in the justice system, so whatever its worth.

what you people sound like to me:

i dont like racism, so that automatically makes it wrong. they should be arrested for expressing hate, even though im showing just as much hate as them right now.

that wasn't the question....

I was asking the question.... I think I would know.

I would hope that it isn't accepted everywhere, but you can't always get what you want...

let me ask you this. are you practicing a religion?

The world is not black and white. Racism is wrong if you ask me but that dose not mean people are not allowed to be racist. That is there right and I support that.

Who?

Me?

No... I'm not religious in the slightest.

I am not that religious but I do believe in God.

no you were making a statment.....you said it's not acceptable...then you said YOU think it is vil and people that believe in racist ways should come to a quick and painful demise which leads me to say...why should they come to a quick and painful demise?

I know you have a problem with me... but seriously... get a grip...

I said that because I don't believe racists deserve a place in society... and feel they deserve the pain to compensate for the pain they cause in striving for segregation.

now, i have many reasons i think religion should be wiped off the face of the Earth. but it doesnt matter, we must learn to coexist. even with racists.

I agree, with the fact we need to learn to get along with them. That is the point, is it not, of accepting people.
