Please re-read my statement. Nowhere did I imply that "anybody who likes Tanner is some kind of closet racist." I never even said "all" or "most" see him as a great white hope. I clearly said "some" which implies a minority.

Semantics. If you are going to call people out, don't cop out on it later. If you really thought it was only a small minority then you wouldn't have bothered to speak out against it.

BTW, I'll give you 2 guesses as to what color I am.
