I saw an excellent example of this on the Donahue show today, not
that we don't see it in soc.women constantly.  One of the guests was
a black man who had been beaten at Howard Beach.  Donahue asked
him what happened and he said, "A white guy in a car said, 'F***
off, ni***rs,' so I said, 'F*** you, honky.'"

A few minutes later a white man in the audience said, "Well, if
you hadn't responded, there wouldn't have been a problem."

The *problem* to racists, sexists and other asorted bigots, is
when subhumans talk back to their superiors, get uppity , don't
stay in their place or show proper respect.  Denigrating human
beings isn't a "problem," the "problem" only occurs when the
people being denigrated don't quietly submit to it, ignore it,
swallow it, lower their eyes and run away, pretend it never
happened, etc.  There is only a "problem" if the subhumans talk back
to the ubermenchen as if they also had free speech and human rights.
Then you have to teach them differently, to eliminate the "problem."
