Nah... Nellie's just one of those guys who thinks that the only existing problem of racism is when it annoys him by getting on his TV. I was like that when I was twelve. Since then, I've left the house on occasion and figured out that, yes, there are a lot of @$$holes out there that keep discrimination alive. It's not all in the heads of the minorities. Granted, when taken to an extreme the victim mentality can be a self-fulfilling prophecy and I think Bill Cosby was right in some of his claims... But blaming minorities for racism is like blaming women for rape.

As for the real hardcore racists like our pal AR and the jackoffs passing out litter in damooster's neighborhood... They're not actually gaining much. They're still a fringe that just screams a lot.
But I wouldn't say buying a gun was a bad decision. Those racist %#$&s are paranoid, on the fringe, and many have been known on occasion to get violent. While they may have little power politically, they individually may have power to cause great harm to people for no reason other than skin color. As bad luck would have it, quite often these thugs pump iron to make up for their lack of brains.
If a racist slimebag threatens your life, you have every right to blow his brains out.
