In-game chat can be useful but I wouldn't be opposed to a racist asshole filter within chat. I'm really not very concerned about 1st amendment rights while playing BF4 so I'l take that risk. At the very least this could be an optional feature on the client side. I'd be happy with an "auto-mute on keywords which I specify" feature. Auto-kick/mute/ban on common spellings of offensive epithets should be a standard, if optional, server feature. It's not perfect but let's at least force the assholes to be creative.
I feel like the game industry has had their head in the sand on this issue for a long time now. They just gave up... or maybe it's the 'a racist's money is as good as yours', attitude....
