No. And I know people call me one behind my back & yet the sky didn't fall in on me. You should see how some people will quickly change the subject if the words Black or Negro come up in my presence. And they dare not talk about Mexicans or immigration in front of me.

A racist is someone who will talk honestly about racial issues - a non-racist is someone who is afraid to.

Not at all, because I'm not a 'racist', at least not in the layperson's sense.

Nevertheless I have been called that a million times and I couldn't care less. I always have good arguments to back up my so-called 'racist' allegations.

I don't accept the labels of opponents, that's true. If people call me racist I explain to them what my stance is, if they seem to have at least a brain cell in their heads. Those who are free thinking sometimes understand what I mean and the conversation proves useful. This is how I got one of my currently best friends interested in her heritage. She began to understand it's not how the media portrays it about hating others, but about passing down your family history. But if they are lost causes, I prefer to avoid them. There were people in school and university who called me racist because I want to preserve my heritage, because I said I wouldn't date blacks and because I didn't agree that mullatta girls look like a beautiful mix.

So in other words, it neither worries me nor is it a label that I think fits me. If people don't understand where I am coming from, then so be it, my time isn't worth to be spent on them any longer. Sometimes, I say to those people, I'm worse than a racist because I wouldn't even date people like you.

Yes and no, it's not good if I am branded a racist in front of the police, for the rest of the time I do not care, it's a matter of safety, just like being branded a witch in the dark ages.

I am no more concerned with being branded a racist than I am with being denounced as a Martian. Both claims would have about as much validity. The term racist has been adopted as a magic bullet by the liberals for intimidating Europeans into silence and inaction as European civlisation is being assassinated before their eyes. The misuse and abuse of the word 'racism' - a word particularly warped and shamelessly exploited by those with an anti-Nationalist agenda - has resulted in a word having no acceptable definition. The word Racism/ist should be consigned to the waste basket of the English lexicon along with such ruined words as gay and liberal.

No.

I have been branded a racist before. It used to bother me, but now I see that these people are exploiting the term. The result is, that valid cases of racism are now often overlooked. It's like the little boy who cried "wolf".

It depends where I am. If I were branded a racist at work or while at uni then I would be a little concerned because I feel people wouldn't want to hear my argument, so it could wreck my social standing. However if someone is ignorant they are worth ignoring. I used to get wound up by being called a racist and being a part of a liberal family I occaisionally am told 'Thats the same kind of speak used by the BNP!' then I just dismiss it or ignore it (I think in this respect most of my family are beyond saving, so to speak).

I also get another argument which is 'Define what it is to be British'. Can it truly be defined? I know that if I said something like 'Well, white for a start', then that would cause serious problems...
