Ask you GF family over the Holidays exactly these words,"so what do you think about the ghetto goon in chief" let me know how unracist they think it is
Why, do you think black people are more prone to violence and would react differently than if I said that to someone that was white and lived in the ghetto?

Go in either a white or black ghetto and call someone that because I bet the results will be the same. Try it and let us know.

Thats not the discussion, the discussion is if its RACIST..
The statement was made towards the POTUS as a racist comment, THAT is what made it an issue. If the remark was true, such as a actual goon, thug or even hoodlum that resided in a ghetto it would not have been a racist statement. The mere fact that he knew what he said and than tried to justify it only made the situation worst.

Oooh so let me see if I understand this, because he called the POTUS a ghetto goon, its a racist statement.
Ok, if he called the president an Ahole, that suddenly becomes a racist statement because it was directed towards the president?
I know GOP types will vote no nothing is ever racist to them but Im interested in seeing what the independents and dems think.
strictly speaking, no, it isn't racist.
"goon" isn't racist, obviously.
"ghetto" refers to a slum that is dominated by one particular race. Saying that Obama is from a 'black slum' may be offensive, and a slur against Obama himself, but it isn't saying anything negative or racist about black people in general.

Ok, if he called the president an Ahole, is that also racist?
NO. I have stated this in an earlier post. Please keep up.
