Here's my view on the whole racial slur issue. While I have no doubts there are racist people of any race out there, oftentimes, in a heated argument, some people throw out a racial slur not because they are racist, but because that is usually an insult that will get the most angry reaction from the other person. The goal of most people when hurling insults is to try to piss off the other party as much as possible.
Is this woman a racist? She may be, but she may not be either. It could be that out of anger, she tried to use an insult that she thought would get the most rise out of the guy, and that is to directly attack his race. I'm not saying what she said is right, but I'm actually more offended by her refusal to leash her dogs more than the slur.
And this is coming from a Chinese guy.
