This is a great development. Look at this polling on racism.  The radical left is trying to redefine racism so that only white men can be racists.  But the good news is that Americans are damn clear, that whoever you are, whatever the color of your skin, your gender, your sexual orientation, socio-economic status, or political party or ideology… whatever you “identify with,” judging people by the color of their skin is wrong. 

WRONG.

Thank God Scott Rasmussen is back in the field asking the questions that matter. Here are the numbers:

Americans overwhelmingly believe that pre-judging someone by the color of their skin is racist.

Eighty-nine percent (89%) of voters nationwide believe it is racist when a white American pre-judges a person of color based on the color of their skin. Additionally, 87% believe it is racist when a person of color pre-judges a white person based on the color of their skin.

Questions about the definition of racism flared up earlier this year when the New York Times hired Sarah Jeong and she was accused of making racist statements on social media against white Americans. Andrew Sullivan wrote a widely discussed column on the topic noting that some on the political left today do not believe racism against whites is even possible.

Got that you Social Justice Warriors?  You are trying to make allowances for hate, but the broad base of the American people aren’t buying it.  

That’s good…because your bigoted ideology has no place in our nation.
