But treegirl specified "race" only, and you backed her play. That's racial prejudice.
I didn't "back her play". I pointed out you were a bully after your dozen attack posts against her. I have a feeling that it would not have made any difference to you if tg had added any other commonality involved in free association...
Once you add race to one of the factors you use to judge who you choose to associate with, you are racially prejudiced. By definition.
Some forms of racial prejudice are fairly inconsequential, like singing nasty songs, but some forms of racial prejudice are profound, like making it more difficult to vote or racial profiling. Is all racism wrong? Yep. But are the effects of some forms of American racism MUCH worse than others? Oh you betcha.

If any of the people who work at BET or MSNBC or LVA pre-judge people based on race, then they are racially prejudiced. By definition. Maybe you should consult a dictionary.
