Remember the last person to be racist around you? Maybe some guy said 'nigger-rigged' or made a joke about lazy mexicans. Can you honestly say that you can, personally, take his car? Home? Money? No, two wrongs don't make a right.
Lead with a carrot, not a stick. Make them want to overlook their own prejudices and see people as people, the stick will bring naught but resentment. Make him think about what hes doing without commiting a sin yourself, choose not to support his team, choose not to buy his houses. Stop trying to control others and just worry about what you do.
Not black people, though. Remember? Multiple housing discrimination suits that he lost.

That's institutional racism, the insidious kind that's lost on amateur-hour wannabe Nazis like you.

Also, fuck you. Society will control others through mores and norms, so get with it or go live in the woods with a bunch of gun nuts. Those are your choices. Deal with it.
