They are not veiled at all - they are clear and open. What you feel about my question to the individual is of no consequence. Its funny how you have read this person insulting persons here over and over unprovoked and it does not bother you, but when the person he or she insults retorts, suddenly it is a poor reflection. Jokes - on you. This person is hurling "racist" again and again not knowing a single person he or she is calling that name - but that is fine I presume. Not surprising.

What do you define racism as, because that is an essential qualifier of your assertion. Don't let what appears to be social interactions fool you about how people truly feel and think - black or white.
