No Trinket, I don't think so. Comments disparaging other races based solely on being that race are racist. That isn't a "ridiculous argument" because that implies that whether or not comments are racist is strictly negotiable...and that isn't the case.

There is overt, and covert, but racially offensive is racially offensive. Just because you don't see it, doesn't mean it isn't there.
