A Nation of Cowards

"Cowards! Ner ner nee nur nur!"

US Attorney General Eric Holder described the United States today as a nation of cowards on matters of race, saying most Americans avoid discussing unresolved racial issues.

That's because most Americans, Eric, actually don't want to divide people up into races all the time and start talking about them, preferring to treat everyone as their fellow human beings rather than someone of a "different type". You call this cowardice; I call it the opposite of racism - anti-racialism.
