Now that Anxious is back, he might let us know his thoughts. How about N.E.Others?
Is it racist to describe a Caucasian attacker as "white" yet to have no mention of colour when an attacker is "non-white"? |

"Is it racist to describe a Caucasian attacker as "white" yet to have no mention of colour when an attacker is "non-white"?"
How does racism come into this? Prejudice, discrimination, or antagonism directed against someone of a different race based on the belief that one's own race is superior. The belief that all members of each race possess characteristics, abilities, or qualities specific to that race, especially so as to distinguish it as inferior or superior to another race or races. https://en.oxforddictionaries.com/definition/racism |

No offence intended. |

Well said Charlie, I don't think I would take much notice of
Someone's colour or religion if they were chasing me with an axe. The guy was a "care in the community case" probably as high as Kite on a windy day. .... Nothing to see here, move on. |
