-the Japanese as "Japs",
-Indians as "wogs",
-A man who has reminded the "Injuns" in his writings that they were beaten by the "white man"
-A man who has written about the "Yellow Peril" and the "g**ks",
-A man who refers to Muslims as "bedturbanned prophet-monkeys" who have a disproportionated share of the "rape market"

I have a hard time relying on this individual as a reliable authority on anything related to a man involved in a race controversy. I would imagine that Steyn is a much more likely candidate to have an "axe" to grind, but that is just my opinion.
