TOO BAD YOU CAN'T BUY a voodoo globe so that you could make the earth spin
real fast and freak everybody out.

After mulling it over, I still think I'm right... Azu is/was practicing equal-opportunity ignorance and hatred. Someone who spews bile at anyone and everyone, and is only called out on it when the recipient is a minority, is not a racist.
It's like blaming cops for shooting armed perps of one race, but giving a free pass when the same events happen to another race. The fact is that armed perps are the problem. I had a terrifying event with two cops; I'm convinced that I'm alive today because I was unarmed, and I let them get their exercise without my resisting (I wasn't encouraging it... they had a gun on me). I'd be rich today, if someone had a camera phone at the time.
The racist is the one who singles out one group, and gives a free pass for all the rest. It's like there is allowed minority privilege, in their minds.
