About twenty years ago, an aunt of mine who has since passed away visited a casino that was on an Indian reservation in Connecticut. When I asked her if she enjoyed the casino, she replied that she loved it but she was disappointed that she didn’t see any Indians with head dresses. Was that a racist statement?

Eugene Robinson, a respected Washington Post Columnist said that O’Reilly’s statements were at best casually racist

So why has the word racist become synonymous and for that matter, always been synonymous with black .vs. white issues? Would anyone really label my aunt as racist by making that statement? My 4 year old son thinks all cowboys look like Woody on Toy Story and all cops shoot bad guys, is that a bad thing?
