And for Winchester's hispanic population, that is a statistic, AGAIN, not racist.
People need to relax, everytime somebody mentions an ethnic group, it doesn't automatically make it racist.

Wrong donkey. Totally f'ing wrong. You mentioned something that had absolutely no relevance to the conversation. The mere mention of it, to most reasonable people, would convey that you personally felt it was somehow relevant in a negative way. YOU brought it up. It had nothing to do with anything. What point did it have at all if the subtle point wasn't negative? Please do explain how someone couldn't see it in a negative light. Bringing up race in that type of situation screams racism. It does.

For example; the barber shop downtown here is called "Sharp Edges", it is owned by an african american guy, and most of his customer base is also african american. Does that make me a racist for saying that?

Not at all. Because it actually is a relevant statement to the conversation (at this point unfortunately).
