Robert Plant is a racist white devil? - PC crap

[J Baldwin <tatbtb@xxxxxxxxx>]

Duty?  I hope this is a joke.

It always kills me when people throw around labels
like this.  Whenever anyone is labeled a racist, I
recall the story a few years back of a white actor
that donned a "black face" and cracked "black jokes"
at some gathering.  You would think his acting days in
Hollywood would be over.  You would think the media
would make sure of it.  You would think wrong, the
actor Ted Danson.  The media did not really lay a
glove on him.  Why? Because the contention was that he
was dating Whoopi Goldberg and couldn't be a racist.

It appears to me that rationalization only works when
it is coming from the PC police.  It also appears to
me that one's actions should only be judged as
malicious if there is malicious intent behind them.

Do you really think Plant is a racist?
