It looks to me like many people proudly carrying the flag of Norway. If you had posted the following photo instead, what would the reaction have been?
Racists have low IQs, regardless of race/ethnicity.

Intelligence Study Links Low I.Q. To Prejudice, Racism, Conservatism

A study, published in Psychological Science, showed that people who score low on I.Q. tests in childhood are more likely to develop prejudiced beliefs and socially conservative politics in adulthood.

That explains some of the race and genetics nonsense in this thread.

People argue back and forth about the connection between race and genetics, the truth is there is no connection between anything other than skin tone that separates humans from each other. Besides physical attributes attained through thousands of years of a people adapting to survive in a particular environment, there is no other separation, physical or mental, between "races".

No, There is No Gene for Race Race is has absolutely no biological connotation. Race is 100% a social convention that was designed to keep people categorized within a class-based system, it is a complete illusion. If you know anything at all about biology and/or genetics, you would know that underneath a microscope, droplets of human blood do not portray any signs of a persons "race."

The is no single gene for race, rather a multitude of genes that differ depending on ancestral origin There is no single gene that makes someone European, African, Asian, etc, rather there are many genes that differ between human populations based on their ancestral origins. These genes determine all sorts of human characteristics, including the ones traditionally used to determine someones race, physical build and eye/hair/skin color. These genes are unique to their populations.

Sure, there are a few intelligent racists, but as a group...
