The lady did not get what she paid for. The sperm bank messed up. This isn't about racism.
If I ordered a Johnny Cash CD from Amazon and they sent me Kanye West CD instead would it mean I was a racist if I wanted an exchange?

That is what you get when you go to Joe The Plumber for your news. First of all they did not wait 6 years. The child was born in 2012 and they brought suite a little over a year later. Second, there is not a single aspect of this entire story that shows this woman is racist in any way. She isn't trying to get rid of the child. She loves her daughter. She just feels that a company that was negligent and has caused her a lot of problems should pay for that mistake. What part of this makes her a racist? And aren't you the one who is always preaching about "responsibility". But when a company screws up you don't think they should be held responsible just because the victim is a lesbian? Why shouldn't the corporation be held responsible for their negligence?

I'm sure if they couched the story as, "White Capitalist didn't receive what she paid for, demands refund" you would be all over her jock.

Rethinking it I don't believe it mattered when she sued. In either case, upon birth or later is no proof she is racist.
Does she belittle the kid or express disdain? If she has ever been heard referring to her child as "my little black Sambo", or "the future car thief" then perhaps you could make a case that she has racist feelings.

Clarification- Not all country music is crappy. There used to be pretty good country music a long long time ago.

I think that's the same logic that says black people are more qualified than white people to understand/discuss diversity, which by definition race has nothing to do with it.

I agree. To clarify, I don't think it's racist for the parent to think they may be ill-equipped or inadequate to raise a kid of another race. I could have worded that more clearly than: "I just don't think it's racist to think you may be ill-equipped or inadequate to raise a kid of another race." I can see how that could be misconstrued to think I was referring to others thinking the parent might be inadequate.

It doesn't in and of itself make you a racists, but if your reasoning for demanding a refund is that the Rap music is too black or you suffered discomfort in being a white person by listening to it then we start to see some indicators.

This seems like a "racism can mean lots of different things" sort of problem. The term "racism" seems to always have baggage but it really shouldn't. There is the sort of racism that is a pejorative but then you have the sort where, say a doctor suspects someone might have sickle cell anemia because of their racial profile. The latter case is technically "racism" but it is actually not a negative thing.

But she didn't just demand a refund. She demanded compensation for the stress, pain, and suffering of having to rear a black child.

But his reasoning could never be that because he bought a Johnny Cash CD and wanted the correct one. Even if he received a rap CD as a prize or gift and returned it, it could indicate he just hates rap. It was really getting old hearing from leftists charges of "you oppose Obamas policies because Obama is black"....no I just hate his policies and his ideology. And I hate rap too.
