Under these circumstances, how can the issues of race be resolved?

Asked by josie (30934points) June 11th, 2015

As a general statement;

If I say that a black man is an asshole because he has black skin then I am (certainly) a racist.

If I say that a man is an asshole, and it so happens that he happens to have black skin, then these days I am also regarded as a racist.

You can’t have it both ways. So there is no way to reconcile that. So who is surprised that there are increasing tensions on the so called Racial Front?
