Can you sue for Racism on the internet?

Better than a skanky, disgusting, slant eyed asian who will never truly fit into our society and remain fat and delusional with no muscle

Why would Michael Dusa say something like this?

Michael Dusa should come on here and make an official statement. Thats downright racist and unacceptable. Yes, a practicing chiropractor... saying those things publicly on a forum.  :-\

Pointing out race-based characteristics in a negative fashion, not racist? then what is?

He just listed a few characteristics, "asian" being one of them. It's like calling someone a fat trailer trash whitey. Doesn't mean he's fat and trailer trash just because he's white.

Hatred towards his own patients?

I have a few Russian patients who speak Russian in front of me to each other at length.

My office policy now is to keep them separated.

They seem to me very shifted and not forthright.

I see an irony where being gay is accepted by western culture when racism clearly isnt.

It may be racist, but there is no cause of action against someone for making racist remarks.

I have no idea on the legal side of this.

First, determine a monetary value for your damages. Next, sue your folks for raising an overly-sensitive gold-digger. Then, get off the Internet.
