Me neither. Here's a good example:
"White man sues after New Mexico police force 14 hour anal cavity search with forced colonoscopy in crazy drug search that turned up nothing because the white man was innocent. They used the fact that he did a rolling stop as the basis for their abuse of him. The man's civil rights attorney says the Hispanic officers may have targeted 'white boy' because they 'don't like him living in their community.'"
The kicker is they billed him for it afterwards.

Of course it is!! Who are we to be judgmental or biased towards someone else because of race, color, beliefs, lifestyle, etc etc? Jesus did not commit racism when he hung out with prostitutes. He did'nt say "oh you're a prostitute so you're a whore." Jesus loved ALL types of people no matter what their backgrounds were, and WE are commanded to do the same. So the next time any of you want to judge somebody for whatever reason, THAT is racism.. Racism is NOT always about color: black and white, yellow, brown or red.
I posted on Feb 2nd 2014. This thread has been resurrected. Consider my post as a general question.
I actually have limited to say on the USA. In fact I suspect you guys are being more compassionate than Australia. It looks like our current Prime Minister is being referred to the international courts of Justice for crimes against humanity. The paperwork has only just been lodged.
But racism is more about the every day stuff.

Our human bodies are the same yes but there is a huge difference between someone who is made pure by the blood of Jesus and has their minds set on pleasing Him than for example someone who is a homosexual who's minds are on sinful lust and are at enmity with God. We are all born sinners but when a person becomes saved they do not have the same mindset and desires as someone in the world. God's salvation is for all but not all people are the same. Some are righteous and pure, some are filthy and wicked. That being said the love of God should be given to all people but a Christian should be an example to live pure so that the nonbeliever will be convicted and turn to Christ for forgiveness.
