Kellyanne: Not offended by Trump's remarks about Blacks because she lives in white community

STEPHANOPOULOS: As you know -- you were just talking about that. But many in the African American community saw that as insulting because they say most African Americans don't live in poverty and that Mr. Trump was making those comments in communities that are more than 90 percent white.

CONWAY: Those comments are for all Americans. And I live in a white community. I'm white. I was very moved by his comment. In other words, he is trying to tell Americans that we can do better. And the thing that he said that I think got a great deal of resonance is that maybe Hillary Clinton looks at you as voters as your -- takes you for granted. I look at you as people.

The literally do not know they are racist and are completely unreflective conserning the racist things they say

Much the same as psycotic serial killers

They lack affect, emphathy and moral judgement but surprisingly, like some psychopaths, they can be highly intelligent and are usually very self motivated and self regarding

... know that they're kid level racist.

There was a cartoon on CN called Drawn Together, one of the characters were unwittingly bigoted ... they are worse... they're not trying to make a statement about the human condition.

correct. They know and they don't care. They have never been held accountable for their racism before and believe that they will not be held accountable this time either.

May they receive every single bit of the karma they wholeheartedly deserve!
