But my intent isn't to say you are a bad person when I call you racist.  My intent is what matters, not your offense.  Why are you assuming my intent was bad?  It's just a word, it has no real meaning.  Why be offended?

If you actually call me a racist when I am not, you have given me the right to be offended.

**But I am tired of measuring my words to make sure I don’t offend a bystander
who might accidentally hear me.  We are soft and weak, with no spine or skin.

I am tired of people getting upset about being called racists and homophobes.  They still get all huffy about it though.  Racists and homophobes are just to thin skinned I guess.  ;)
