Yeah, because being proud of being Southerner means that you're racist.

Being a southerner or a proud one has nothing to do with being racist. Racism has to do with one's attitude towards others that are not like them. Perfect example is when republicans continue to use racist stereotypes in referring to others who are not white.

Well I scored perfect on my Reading Comprehension when I did my entrance exams for graduation school.
Following someone does not cause a fatality. Physically assaulting someone who is armed does though.
Zimmerman did not cause the fatality. Trayvon caused the fatality. By being overly aggressive and violent.

Alternatively, don't bring the subject up. Because it's a cheap ploy and illogically invalid in this instance. So you don't have to worry about it either way.
But you're right. She wasn't calling him a racist...
