Bigotry on Raw

I am sure a lot of you guys saw the Orton/Benjamin confrontation on Raw. When Orton said "you people", you could hear the crowd in awe because it was a rather racist remark. I remember Evolution had previously done this to Booker T. Heck, I remember Vince calling Booker T some type of ancient dinosaur name that was construed as being a racist remark. Also, a few weeks back, Coach did the whole Oriental stereotype thing with Tajiri (Chinese food). With JBL, and WWE's past history with bigotry not being punished, do you think something should be done? I am curious as to what the networks had to say. Using bigotry is a cheap way to get heat, but hopefully it isn't the prevalent part of a storyline. Just want to know what you guys think. BTW, this discussion is argued by Wade Keller of PWtorch.com, so check it out if your interested.
