You're allowed to be racist or to openly support racist ideals in public. You aren't allowed to intimidate someone based on their race. Intimidation isn't protected speech any more than fraud is.

You can charged with assault for language that is used to threaten or harass someone, especially when directed at someone's race, religion, gender, etc, which can elevate it to a hate crime.
