That's all you have to come back on?

Seriously, why are you even attempting to have a conversation with anyone if all you are going to do is go back to childish retorts?
Because there's no point. A cat walking across your keyboard would have typed a less nonsensical reply.

I thought you were saying it was racist to claim someone of color only cares about the civil rights act...

which even I thought was pretty racist...

"Are you saying, you've been talking to my cat over the Internet?"
And thanks for admitting that Ted Cruz really is the zodiac killer.

All of those are more acceptable than something that's a combination of "(skin color) (derogatory noun)". Seriously, when would that be acceptable for a person to use for any other race?

Sometime around when it became acceptable for "thug" and "urban" to be used to refer to all blacks in a derogatory fashion as code words for less savory terms that have become -- and rightfully so -- linguistic pariahs.

Still not really sure it's a phrase I would classically define as "racist,"
Racism isn't a one-way street. Just like racists aren't always white.

Sooner you realize that, the better you will understand actual racism in this country. Where most of the racism actually occurs.

There's really no way to have this conversation with someone who is already convinced they are without guilt or error.

I tried once in the past week and you didn't get it, I'm not going to waste my time again.
Except that people do think that way.

Am I without guilt or error? No. But am I racist? No.

I'm guilty of something else, but that's besides the point. But you can, 100%, not be racist at all. It's very easy, you just don't see people by the color of their skin or treat anyone any differently.

I'm pretty sure that everyone here on this website does not have the same pigmentation on their skin. Do I treat anyone any differently? Really?

I can't prove how I treat people in person on this website, just like you can't prove that I am racist. But don't assume that somebody is something because you think that everyone is the same.

TL:DR version - I don't care what the color of your skin is, all I care about is what you can do for me.

I prefer Jerry Brudous the shoe fetish killer !

Between 1968 and 1969, Brudos bludgeoned and strangled four young women. The only initial evidence were witness sightings of a large man dressed in women's clothing. In the garage of his Salem, Oregon home, Brudos kept trophies from his victims, expressly two pairs of amputated breasts that were used as paperweights and the left foot of a 19-year-old woman named Linda Slawson (his first murder victim) which he used to model the shoes he collected. After committing a murder, he would dress up in high heels and masturbate. Police investigation and interviews of local university students led them to Brudos, who described the murders in detail.[2] He had confessed to murdering Linda Slawson, Jan Whitney, Karen Sprinker and Linda Salee, and was sentenced to life in prison.

While incarcerated, Brudos had piles of women's shoe catalogues in his cell — he wrote to major companies asking for them — and claimed they were his substitute for pornography. He lodged countless appeals, including one in which he alleged that a photograph taken of him with one of his victim's corpses cannot prove his guilt, because it is not the body of a person he was convicted of killing.

Brudos died in prison on March 28, 2006 from liver cancer. At the time of his death, Brudos was the longest incarcerated inmate in the Oregon Department of Corrections (a total of 37 years, from 1969 to 2006).[

It'd be wise to issue a permaban just to be on the safe side.

But please admit that you are, indeed, supporting one no mater how begrudgingly.

P.S. spell checkers are your friend.
But apparently they're not your friend.
Both mater and matter pass the spell checker. As I still haven't learned to spell well I rely, perhaps too heavily, on the spell checker.

... Remember, you are calling a quarter of the nation that....
US population = 324,692,000 (this afternoon)
Eligible voters = 225,778,000 (projected for this election)
Total number of Americans eligible to vote 218,959,000 (alternate data set)
Total number of Americans registered to vote 146,311,000 (same alternate data set)
35% of registered voters identify with the Democratic Party, 28% with the Republican Party and 33% as independents. (2012 figures)
All registered voters = 45% of the population. All registered republicans = 12.6 of the population.

Given that not all republicans support the Donald, and some independents and non voters do, at BEST I am calling 8% of the population that. That's a LONG way from your "quarter of the nation."

You don't have to use butchered math to support sweeping generalizations. The beauty of preconceived biases is that real statistics no longer apply.
