Its not racist, its bigoted.

Racism is a belief that your race is inherently superior to other races. Being lazy and expecting the rest of the world to speak your language is bigoted at worst, arrogant at best.

They do come up with the best jokes. But seriously unless Al Sharpton comes in I wouldn't really consider that statement racist.

As others have pointed out, that is not racist. It certainly is a stupid remark, however.

wow, um what are u doing here if u dont' game? anyway, E3 is electronic gaming expo. developers for video games go to LA and show their games off. people like microsoft, sony, and nintendo show what they are working on. just about every video game journalist (gamespot, IGN, PC gamer, gamespy, ETC) write about it to tell people like us about it.

i don't think it was racist. the person was just saying a joke. i've heard worse things.

The fact that the statement doesnt point out a particular race is what makes it not racist. Had they pointed the topic to whites/blacks/latinos/asians, then yes, it would be racist, but its a blanket statement that includes the entire US population regardless of race.
