That's because you have more sense. Calling someone out on their race is pointless and insulting. As I said, if he'd have just called them niggers, it would have been insulting, but not necessarily indicative of true racism on his part...more a desire to hurt/insult. That he made reference to them being strung up however, is a step beyond that. That he makes reference to them being so much braver now (as opposed to back then when they were presumably kept in a state of fear, the clear implication being that that was a better state of affairs) is a step beyond.
