I'm curious, how often do white conservatives like you actually use words like "hood rat" in the presence of blacks in real life? Just curious...

Indians are Asians(you can argue all you want, but Indians fall under the "Asian" demographic category in the US), and many Asians have voiced their concerns about racism, stereotypes, discrimination, and prejudice.

They often do all they can to avoid living in black areas, and their numbers are small enough, along with them being educated, where employment discrimination does not come up.

Asians are complaining though regarding college admissions.

Everyone except blacks should be complaining about the racist hiring policies of the federal gov, in which blacks make up a disproportional amount of the federal workforce, in some agencies approaching 50% of the workers.
Name a federal agency with near 50% of the workers being black.

Just one.

He wouldn't dream of it. Not in a million years.

If you knew where he lived in this state, you'd know why he talks like that.

PC aside, what you say is truer than what most people are willing to admit.

Asian Indians do complain about Racism. Its just that they do not complain about that in front of Whites and well they are such a small minority that there voices are not heard. Muslim Americans do complain about Racism and attacks on their places of worship but that comes under Religious intolerance rather then Racism.
One more thing about Indians is that they socialize with their own immigrant communities so they have little interaction with other people. After 10-15 years when there will be a large Asian / Indian population with lot of them born here in the US, they will start expressing that in a much better way.
Black people faced Slavery, Jim Crow era and still people feel that there is no Racism in America-that is some joke. Their past is not forgotten and everytime such case comes in limelight, they are reminded of the dark past of Jim Crow and Discrimination.
