Sadly, yes I have experienced racism in my life. I don't find "jokes" that relate to race funny and it was extremely unprofessional of Shaq to make those comments in the first place.

- Lacking education or knowledge.
- Showing or arising from a lack of education or knowledge: an ignorant mistake.
- Unaware or uninformed.
I would say you were very uninformed of my opinion and showed it by directly addressing me and following with a blanket statement about ignorant people. If that's not putting words in my mouth then you should at least be more careful of what comes out of yours. Besides, why would I say I hated Shaq if I didn't have a reason? I simply didn't want to bring my personal opinion on him into a discussion in which my view of him as a person has nothing to do with his value as a player in the NBA.

I think I have the right to hate someone for being a jerk. Why else would I hate someone? Personality my ass.
