>I don't find JR's views as racist. Sorry, Victor, but I think your eagerness to claim racism far exceeds any racist overtones to JR's messages.

I disagree -- condoning or denying racist behavior is a racist action. It's not different that telling a racist joke then claiming you didn't say something racist because you didn't write the joke, you just told it. Furthermore there was no eagerness on my part as I gave him probably a dozen opportunities to see that before I called him out on it.
