How very true, the majority of racist people would never say anything in public outside circles they seem comfortable with. I have heard some very nasty racist remarks about black people, recently I took a black woman in my local pub and I noticed that a few people who say 'hello' avoided me.
On the other hand, one guy who often makes racist remarks couldn't stop talking to her, being friendly and cuddling her, but I dare not tell her.

I took a black girlfriend in there about 4-5 years ago, and one guy has not spoken to me since.

There are pubs in my town that I would not take my previous Asian gf in, and I would not take a black gf in.
