People abuse the word "racist"

Let's star with the bold part.

1. That's untrue. An company doesn't have to hire a black applicant over a white applicant, and they often don't. In a recent study it was found that people with white sounding names typically needed to send out 10 resumes to get a callback, people with black sounding names needed to send out 15. Statistically speaking, that's an enourmous gap. On top of that, the unemployment rate for black college graduates is more than twice the national average.

2. There are however still quotas and percentages that need to be adhered to for schools and buisinesses regarding minority groups, though I suspect that you'll see that change to economic quotes in the future, at least for schools.

As for the rest of your post, that's the price we pay for our free speech. I have a right to say pretty much whatever I want, and it's a right I excercise regularly, but I'm also fully aware that there are consiquences. If you say that something that's going to piss people off, you'd better be ready for people to be pissed off.

Having the right to say whatever you want also means you're responsible for everything you say.

You are missing the point. We know that there are reprecautions for our words. The problem is the exagerated punishment these SJW's want to impose.  If we are disagreen on on something, and I come of a litle racist or sexist or whatever, there can never be any reason for you to call my employer or school and ask for my separation of such, or even mark me so the entire society shuns me. Its plain ridicoulous and frankly thats very nazi like thinking. Think and do what we do or we will completly destory your life, later we will come for your life.

So you're okay with there being repercussions for our words as long as they're not actually damaging? So what exactly is your proposed solution to this issue? Force institutions to stand by employees and students no matter what they say, regardless of the potential damage? Or do we make it illegal for people to take action against something they find offensive?

I'm not missing the point, it's the whole point.
