A racist is a person who discriminates on the basis of race. To call Tim a racist is uncalled for. You can certainly say he shouldn't have broken the laws, but he is not a racist. Unless you want to claim that he is TOO much in love with Koreans and Korean culture. The man practically wrote the Korean national anthem with his praises of Koreans and Korean culture!

But then you may be talking about small 't' tim. Your use of the English language and spelling (and,yes, this does count- this is an ESL forum after all!) in your post was rather poor (judgement by a 27 years of experience teacher with masters degrees in both English and education)and could lead to a confusion about which Tim/tim you were talking about, but I believe it was Tim and not tim. If so, please call him a law-breaker(though he admits as much and it would be redundant to do so), but not a racist. You have no evidence for that and the word "racist" is used all too loosely in this forum.
