If they knew the identity of the raicst, then sure. But, if they didn't and his goal was to stir up trouble, aren't you helping him achieve his goal? Why would you want to help a racist spread his racism?


Could've fooled me based on news stories from the past 20 years or so.

But, seriously, I think there's a time to ignore it and a time to take action. In the case of the OP, I think it's best to ignore it and not draw attention to one racist (unless they find out hwo it is).


Sort of. According to the article, there were 2 letters in one envelope.


That's what I'm getting at. If this guy's goal is to upset people, congratulations, you've helped him achieve his goal. 

It should not be upsetting that there are racists...it should be infuriating.  And large groups should speak out about it until said racist feels insecure enough to move along.

Announcing there is a racist in a town is no different that announcing there is one in the US or on this board or in any group or your own family.  Call them out.

Then run them out on a rail if they identify themselves.
