I try not to judge people based on using a word one time. Nothing about the situation is clear to me, and I think if anyone rushes to judgement it's a little absurd.

I've met plenty of people who use anti-Italian words like dago, wop, guido, and goomba, and yet many of them aren't racists at all. In fact, some of my closest friends often refer to me as a wop, and they couldn't be less racist. Words are just words.

I have a black friend who calls African blacks "spearchuckers". Would he be a racist as well?

I think society has gone on a hyperbinge of political correctness that is now just absurd. Say one thing and you're a racist.

Thank God South Park already covered this lunacy. I guess the creators of that show are racists too, right?
