It's a racing board. I have no idea if any if y'all out there are sitting in your boxers with a white hood over your head sipping your herbal teas. I don't care. Thought police are everywhere looking to "out" anyone who thinks something that is "______-ist." You cannot bust someone for not liking someone. The world ain't full of just Kumbaya humming, granola chomping sandal sporting people. There are differences of opinion. Accept it.

I agree with Grits assessment of Hamdan's comments. Let him get in the hot box (an it might be a while) and hop aboard next time. Oops, that comment was "size-ist."

It's not that she's not entitled to her difference of opinion, or her thought that the multiple inclusion of "Arab" was acceptable in that post when it was irrelevant. By all means, "Arab" away.

I don't have to like it though. And I have not classified her as any "______-ist" in any way.
