it quotes wardaddy saying he is against and DEMOGRAPHIC (not cultural) change.

Does "demographic" actually mean race though? I thought it was a somewhat more vague word --- demos -- meaning "people". The USA is the most racially mixed country in the world --- so regretting the loss of traditional USA culture and democraphics doesn't automatically make one a racist. Just like those celebrating the hispanics moving into the top minority position are often extremely anti-black, those pushing for La Raza take-over of the USA are not non-racists. Some see the blacks now being in the third position as good because they lose their power --- and just because it's another "race' they're cheering on for their own purposes, it doesn't mean they aren't the worst kind of racists.

I've always taken demographics to mean people in general, not necessarily race.

If a bunch of liberal white Catholics move to a conservative white Catholic area and cause the area to go rat, that's certainly a demographic change IMO.

I'm not even sure saying xyz race is inferior makes you a Racist with a big R. It might make you a racist with a little r. Put 100 people in front of me, and I can tell 90% correct the area of ancestry. Am I a racist ? Not really. You can say you are for equality and non discrimination and blah blah blah but then if you go out shooting people of a certain color because you don't like them, then you are a Racist with a big R. Talk is cheap, actions say more about what you really believe. The limosine liberals go out and blah blah blah about racial inequality and what do they do about it, nothing. Hollywood is the worst. They blah blah blah but when it comes time to put a minority on tv or in film in a nice role, you can forget about it.

Wardaddy's comment about demographics is a racist comment. But how does he live his life ? That I do not know. Besides, we are all human, we all have faults. Saying inappropriate stuff is not a jailable offense yet. I'd rather have someone say something inappropriate, than do something inappropriate.
