White supremacist claims he isn't racist

[Raistlin]

No, really. He just doesn't want to live by those damned darkies, but he's not racist!

So please, don't call him a racist. He says that's not true.

"I would ask you about your version of racist," Murdough said. "The word does not have a specific definition. If someone says, 'You seem to hate people who aren't white,'

I say no, so I can't really be a racist, because I don't hate them. I just don't want to live around areas that are heavily, predominantly non-white."

This idiot is even running for the New Hampshire State Senate.

I must admit, "I'm not racist because I don't actively hate other races" is a new one. Though my all-time favorite racist excuse remains "I'm not racist because I let black people use my bathroom."

What lame-ass excuses have you heard from bigots claiming not to be bigots?

EDIT: Haha, I just realized this idiot says "there's no specific definition of racism," but then immediately after says "I can't be a racist, because that narrowly means I hate other races." *brain explodes*

A racist claiming he's not racist? What's new?

[Raistlin]

The new and exciting ways they try to claim they're not racist are entertaining, though. I mean, come on, the "I let black people use my bathroom" excuse is hilarious.

[rubah]

I always liked the "I'm not racist because I belong to the race in mention."

[Mo-Nercy]

"I've even read some things where Jews are considered white because of their skin," Murdough said. "Technically, they're a different race than white people. They're Semitic; that's not white."

I presume he also thinks that only white people can be Christian.

[Rodarian]

OMG that white man is on to us... All us non whites (including 'Jewish') are pure evil!! We're actually going to be 'whitewashing' USA so the blood comes out grey...

Facebook is a goldmine

I am not racist but if women in Britain want to where a vail to cover there faces then i would class them as muslim so fk away off to ur own countries and do want yas want ,coming here forcing muslim laws on british soil!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And just to add insult to injury, his 'Favourite Quotation'

never judge a book by the cover ,,, takes a good man to to sit back and realise sometimes that wot has happened has happened time goes on and we all only live once.

I wonder if it is racist to not want to live in an area that isn't mostly your own race? Depends on how you come across, mostly. Same with wanting to date within your own race. Is it racist to find some races more attractive than others? UCONN has official clubs for different races but would never condone racism. The issue isn't black and white. I imagine all of those things are technically racism, but then again, so is Affirmative Action, double standards on the n word and many other things. The question is, is wanting to live in an area where people are predominantly of your cultural identity the bad sort of racism, or is it the culturally accepted racism? I figure it's somewhere in between. Racism itself is becoming fairly useless as a word - like Nazi or comparing someone to Hitler. Countless misuse has robbed the word of its power.

Uh oh, this just turned into an EoEO thread.

Uh oh, this just turned into an EoEO thread.

XD Time to move this thread over.... Oh wait I don't have the power to do so.... STAFF PPL!! STAFF!!!

[Madame Adequate]

You've not seen this before, Wes? xD They've been doing this for a long time now, they claim to be racial 'seperatists', who think all races are equal but that races should not mix. It is fairly hilarious.

WE ARE ALL HUMANS

WE ARE ALL です

EXCEPT FOR PIKACHU

What is so confusing about this thread? Can somebody even define racism?です Oh wait I'll do it for fun! Racism is when you thですink 'race' A is better than 'race' B inherently anですd solely due to 'race', whatever that means [colloquially it ですmeans common descent].

The definition seeですms to forget that we're all fromです the same ancestors but that's okay we'll just shift thですe goal post untですil it lets us hate minorities.

Anyway, strictly relatinですg to personal preferences i don't ですconsider it racist to say 'I want to date my own race/cですulture' and 'I like to hang around people oですf my own background'. Certainly being racist can include the two preceding claims but the claims do noですt mean you are racist (B -> A 'Wrong Direction' fallacy)

I mean, I wisですh I could catch pokemon without throですwing pokeballs. Then I could catch all of theですm and then be afraid to use the pokeballs because they'll release pokemon insteですad of catch them! OH CRAP



Gotta ketchup them all です~!

What I am about to tell you is completely true.

Not long ago I was having a futile discussion with this racist douche at work - although, he claims that he is not a racist. According to him, he's not a "racist", he just doesn't feel "comfortable" standing next to one or more black people, as he has a fear of the "dark".

Again, how is that racist? He didn't say anything about how one race is inherently better than another. That's merely stupid or discriminatory but not racist.
