If their own words make them racist is it OK to point out those words and call the person a racist in public?

Sure, as long as you know that, at best, that will only silence the racists. It won't actually get rid of racism.

I wouldn't call making some snarky Facebook comments or booing at a football game to be the equivalent of "emotionally charged".

Point being you claimed he was scared, not a nutcase.

Oddly I have not called "everyone" a racist...just those who say racist things.
Apparently that is okay to do as long as I am not violent...right?

Well your definition of racist leaves a lot to be desired. But that's pretty common among the leftists on this board. Everyone is a racist when they don't believe as you all. Lol

No, as defined in this thread racists are people who say racist things.
If someone says racist things they are a racist.
Pretty clear.
Although it seems that if someone disagrees with racist/nazis/etc they are called leftists with a lot to be desired in that definition.

So white nationalists say they want to get rid of non-whites.
Then most everyone across the political spectrum calls them "racists" because of what they say.
And you conclude that "leftists" call everyone "racist" who does not believe as they do.
Looks like there is more than one generalization error here.

No. I am speaking about leftists on this board. They love calling anyone who has a remotely conservative point of view on any topic ..... a racist.
Somehow they believe they will brow beat and shame people into submission to fall in line with their beliefs.
This is why a lot of us just don't care any longer when racist/homeophobe/islamaphobe/etc are thrown out in any thread.

A lot of democrats and libs are racist then.
The amount of racist remarks that have come out the mouths of those you adore is unrivaled.

Wouldn't prejudiced be a better word than racist? Everyone has prejudices.

In the end no one knows but him until police sort it out.
So, it's not his fault, he was being provoked. Attacking in self defense it sounds like...
But you don't defend Nazis...

What's funny, to me, is I treat people based on what they say and do...not their party affiliation, not their color, not their religion.
But if it makes people feel better to act racist and accuse everyone who calls them on it of being, well, anything but truthful that doesn't bother me either.

Unless it comes out that he pre planned this attack before the rally then yes he was provoked.
That is in fact the definition of being provoked

Even preplanned attacks are "provoked" per your logic. Anytime someone desires to harm another because of their stances or beliefs, you're arguing the victim provoked the aggressor.
I'm not sure that holds up in court when he claims self defense
