Does anyone else get the feeling that Quentin Tarantino is a racist?

I'm not sure I'm comfortable with the way he characterizes black actors. Also, why do so many characters say the N word in his scripts?

I remember Denzel Washington having a beef with him years ago about the "Crimson Tide" script and I agree with other posters every movie a white guy says nikka from Pulp fiction to Jackie Brown

My thoughts exactly. That shyt was so fukking random and unnecessary and just thrown in there for the hell of it. It didn't make any sense either, because he's so desperate for the two hitmen to clean up the mess and get the fukk out of dodge before his wife gets back, but yet he has the time to make the both of them coffee?

Even in Reservoir Dogs, I got the feeling through a lot of the dialogue that he's a dude who actually feels that way but just wants to express it through film.

And for people who says he can't be a racist because he's into black music and blah blah blah, that doesn't mean shyt. What about all the racists on youtube who have 'die ****** this, die ****** that' in their comments but when you check their profiles you see Jay-Z and Kanye West videos favourited?

Django Unchained will obviously have the n-word more than the word 'fukk' in the documentary of the same name, so I'm not supporting that shyt either. Nothing was 'cool' or stylish about slavery. Give me a Nat Turner film then we can talk.

I don't know about racist but he pushes the envelope and he can mask it by having it in the dialogue in the script for a black character. But I do appreciate him for casting Pam Grier for the lead in Jackie Brown even though in the book the movie was based on Jackie was a white woman.
