You misinterpret proc0&#x27;s comment: they are saying there is no excuse to treat Neil deGrasse Tyson as a shoplifter because of his race, that there is no excuse to ever decide that all people of a certain race or any category are all something or share something (in their comment &quot;assholes&quot; in yours &quot;shoplifting&quot;).<p>Basically racism (using this definition: [1]) is never OK, regardless to which race and with which attributes.<p>[1] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.google.ca&#x2F;search?btnG=1&amp;pws=0&amp;q=define+racism&amp;gws_rd=cr,ssl&amp;ei=K4G2VrzwDse2jwO-j7PoAw" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.google.ca&#x2F;search?btnG=1&amp;pws=0&amp;q=define+racism&amp;gw...</a>
