Some people will call you racist if you even use the word "race" in a sentence no matter the context. I suspect people who do that are trying to impress everyone with their open-mindedness and sense of fairness, when in reality they are displaying limited thinking and a tendency to unquestioning, sheepish conformity.
If I say something like "Jews are a threat to peace in the Middle East" I will be branded an anti-semite and accused of committing a hate crime. But when taken objectively, what is wrong with being anti-semitic? It is the short-sighted, shallow thinkers who are trying to please everybody who lash out against any mention of "race" because they mistakenly think it is the only proper thing to do.
If you study history you will find that virtually all inventions and advancements in science and industry have been made by Northern Europeans, Americans, and other white races living in the colder northern latitudes. Very few major scientific advances have been made by Pacific South Sea islanders. This is fact. Yet if you suggest something of this you will be accused of racism.
The folly of political correctness knows no bounds.

Yes you can ask but it has been proven time and time again.
There is no superior race, only racists who try to make it appear as such. People are judged by there individual merrits
Some black people are inventors and have proven superior intelligent. Some white people the same and everyone knows how well built a japanese car is made. So judge us as people.

free thought and free speech are slightly different. You still have free speech but people also have the right to use their free speech against you. If you have a problem with people dissagreeing with you and saying such things, perhaps it would be best to think over these thoughts to yourself? I'm not saying you were right or wrong because I don't know what the original disscussion was completely about, but it just seems perhaps you should avoid things that might cause conflict if you can't take the feedback from your comments/questions.

The people that are ready to label you as a racist probably have the same thoughts and questions from time to time, but they are too scared to admit it and discuss it. I didn't read your earlier question, but I think you're entitled to your opinions and you should be able to ask questions like that. If other people want to slam you for it, then just ignore them. Luckily we live in a society that allows us these freedoms. Hopefully these people's insistence on being politically correct won't ruin it for us.

There is no such thing as a superior race even though some people may like to feel superior to others.
All men are created equal.

Is there a Superior Race?
Oh yes indeed there is but the saddest part about admitting such is having to say that they no longer live among us humans......
They now live on another planet!

Simple they are Americans=Ignorance now this days you cannot say anything good or right about any race specially if you white.
White people in America keep down other races and make fun of and treated badly now you can't simply ask anything.
I know it doesn't make sense what I said.

The presumption that any race is superior is in itself "racist". However, being a racist is not illegal and having racist thoughts are permitted in a free society as long as they do not infringe on the rights of others.
