Well, honestly I don't care if someone feels muted because it's not socially acceptable to make racist remarks. If someone says something racist to me they're going to get hurt. They can discuss how this is so unfair in their next Noe-Nazi meeting.. And I'll leave it at that...
So would you expect them to return the favor if something is said that they deem as racist towards them?
This is the problem.....
Things have different meanings to different people. There are times when nothing racist was meant but it can be construed that way. So if you take something the wrong way without understanding intent do you think that gives you justification to harm someone?
Come on. Use some logic. People need to stop making racist remarks just like people need to stop looking for any opportunity to call someone a racist. It's a two way street.

Ah good old violence... what ever happened to the old saying violence never solved anything.
Do you realize you're perpetuating a certain stereotype that black men are violent when you make such comments and act on them?

Turn the other cheek if you want to but that's not me...
There's that "respect" thing wrapped up in anger over words someone else says to you, yet blacks call each other the "N" word all day long and although not in a disrespectful manner its still derogatory in nature and still holds black people back.
What stands out the most for me in this particular post is how open you are with being indifferent in your attitude and actions even to a level thats dangerous. Again when you do this it only reinforces that same stereotype of black men being dangerous and indifferent. Do you then see being violent might be a factor in why many white people don't want to be around, associate, live near, work with etc... black people, especially black males?

I would just hope that black men like you give great pause in reacting to such ignorance from that certain segment of the population who are racist. The way you react often times reflects more negatively on you than the original words from those idiots spewing them.
As a white male (speaking only for myself ) I have have had great friendships with people of all races and backgrounds however the reality is that I tend to distance myself from what I call "Thuggish" black males. I have had this honest race discussion among other whites and have a consensus that I'm not the only white who thinks like I do, which is that I find these certain black males to be a personal threat, unpredictable, and dangerous.
So why is it I can have great friendships with a lot of black women and even certain black male professionals but when I honestly state I dislike black thugs I am automatically racist because they are black even when my dislike of them is not based on the color of their skin but rather their actions and attitude of being Indecent, dangerous or indifferent??
You have to be politically correct to keep peace in life. People could care less about what you think of such and such.
Some want a free pass to say what they want with out consequences and cry fowl when they get called out on their inappropriate conduct.
Respect to get respect.
We have to be very careful and not hurt THE FEELINGS of terrorists as they chop off heads and drive over chilren. As Loretta Lynch said. We have to love the terrorists. This is political correctness from the left. And they
are sick. I don' t want respect from terrorists. Political correctness is covering the truth.
