How does PIing a poster based upon a select amount of posts differ from a bigot becoming racist based upon a select amount of interactions with an ethnic group?

You're the only person on this blog that uses discriminatory language about black America.

i do, sometimes.

One is making a judgment on an individual based on the actions of the individual.  In your second scenario you are making a judgment on a group of people you've never met based on the actions of individuals.  You are assuming that one characteristic makes them all the same.

Also, I would classify your original post as discriminatory language since you clearly can't see the difference.

I don't ever recall MIR and Sundance ever fighting so I'm not sure where this is all coming from. 

MIR can be a real bad person though.
