Ah, I see, fair enough then, I retract the statement. I wasn't paying close enough attention apparently, likely owing to nihilism or apathy.

EDIT: Though I guess I should clarify that I disagree that "actively cheering someone on for a racist act kind of falls into the racism category", necessarily - two people can favour the same course of action, one for racist reasons and one for totally non-racist reasons; the intentions matter significantly. I can't think of an example in the Redskins situation particularly, but then, I have had quite a lot of rum.
