That is not REALITY and you are a racist to think it is. That's reality.

It was clearly implied that if even his loving grandmother was racist we all 
must be.

Bullshit. You accept his claim that all blacks are racist?
Yes they exist but that's a very big brush you use. Like saying all whites are 
racist because you know a few.

Why bring his daughters to him if he wanted change? Why not talk to the 
Preacher and start where it matters the most, with the guy that's lecturing his 
kids?

You can't excuse racism by saying everybody does it or most people do it or 
there's a reason people are racist. That doesn't give it a pass.
