I'm probably going to regret jumping in here....but is it some way Mira is presenting this along with the latino comments that bothers you and makes you sure she is a racist, or the just fact that she said this at all?
The reason I was asking was because I wondered that if a person (me, not Mira) has actually witnessed with their own eyes and ears examples of people being raised/taught to hate 'whitey' am I a racist if I mention it? I don't know you or Mira...not here to take sides...and rarely to never do PMs, just wondering how you saw this as 'racism'.

If that comment were the only one, I probably wouldn't have bothered to reply to her ramblings. But if you read the others that I bolded, then yes, I believe she has a racist attitude. I'm sure there are cases of people being taught to hate "Whitey" but do you agree, that in combination, her comments smack of racism? I find it hard to believe that every hispanic man who sees Mira becomes instantly angry. I also find it hard to believe that the reason Mira has problems with customs agents is because they're jealous that she's white. So the comment about "Whitey" in combination with the others, is racist, imo. I was responding to her posts in totality. No doubt the comment you have singled out could be and is true in instances.
I'm done.
