Petition condem the word "racist" as a derogative and offensive term.

More details

I would like to start a petition as to gain support to condemn and class the word "racist" as a derogative and offensive term, that de humanizes people and is used openly as a means to repress innocent people of all races and creeds.
This terrible word is used to divide communities and drive a wedge between them.

I would ask that this word, would be classed as a public order offense if openly directed against someone in public.
