I don't think TXBill is/has racist tendencies. I think he is (his statement is) more of 3 and 4.

If you are only being carefule or cautious around someone because of race you have racist tendencies. Racism is racism regardless of the meaning behind it. Racial prejudice is a form of racism. Being careful and concerned is something people should do regardless of race and should have nothing to do with race.
