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.

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
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.
