You never said it was racist.....but you most certainly through the minority card around.
Jims point is that the minority thing has nothing to do with it...which it doesn't....
But it sure does seem like people like to throw the minority card around lately

If you can’t afford a car, or if you don’t need one because you take the bus or subway, you are less likely to have a driver’s license. Students are less likely to have driver’s for the same reason. Driver’s licenses are not the only form of id, but minorities don't have as much access to other legally forms such as Passports, military IDs or other government-issued photo ID
