Are you still grieving? You are not alone.

If racists have the free speech to say racist things then we certainly have the  free speech to call out their racism.

We certainly do and I hope people do, for the sake of progressivism.

My "problem" with it is that you stop there. It's easy to call someone "racist. End of discussion.", what productive comes out of that?

Because of over-use, "racist" is not an argument anymore, it's lost all meaning. Instead of immediately jumping to ad-hominem name-calling, why don't you actually explain your point of view with reasoned, well thought out arguments? It shouldn't be difficult to convince someone of the stupidity of racism, not just because racism is so wrong but because it's a bloody stupid irrational viewpoint. But when your entire argument is "that's racist." you're not adding anything productive to the discussion, or doing anything to convince people why you're right. From what I've read of a couple of your above posts, the only thing I've learned is that something is being called "racist", I'm not seeing any argument of substance going on.
