Wow.
First off, we're all racist. We may fool ourselves into thinking we're not, but every single one of us think differently about people in other skin color. It is simply human nature. No matter what you do or how you raise your kids, I promise you that they think differently about people who are a different color. But kudos for your efforts.
Secondly, I grew up around my father and uncles saying disparaging slogans about other people. My friends in the Midwest had no tolerence for my father and his language. They thought he was ignorant (he kind of is) and racist (he certainly is). However, on their first time to LA we stopped off at a Popeyes and they were floored by the service and attitude of the workers. It was at that moment that they understood what my father was speaking about in a cultural context.

Absolutely, positively wrong. And that is the problem in this discussion. Liberals assuming that everyone is racist because they are.

I mean, you can't really judge a race by the people who work at Popeyes, but I reckon I understand what you are saying.

Thinking differently about other people isn't racist.
