In today's political climate, you can be labeled a racist simply for discussing race.  We've discussed race, poverty, the reasons for poverty,  the solutions, etc.  If she were to put her views out on Foxnews, she would be attacked as a crazy leftist hack and a whole lot of other things.  If I put my views out on the Huffington post, I would be called a racist.  Neither of those designations are true of either of us.  I'm in a bi-racial marriage!   Today, you can be labeled something simply because you hold a contrary view and it is easy to do that on the internet.

In person, face to face, I have only had one conversation with someone I would consider a racist.  It was at a Waffle House in Mississippi.  That guy was a sick puppy!
