Is it normal to not get too friendly with certain people

Recently my friends Tom and Karen had a small dinner party. Tom invited a few people from the office where I also work. Tom was careful to make sure that only the people invited knew about this party, as it was planned as a reltively small affair, with only about 15 to twenty folks attending. Well, somehow, the firm's only black guy got wind of it. Although Tom and Karen did not invite him, he shows up at their door about a half hour after the party had begun. Karen met him at the door, and, shocked, summoned Tom.Tom told this guy that the party was for his friends, and not some office affair. He then, abruptly, slammed the door in this guy's face. I could not believe the nerve of this guy. Crashing a private party like that. I mean, everyone would have left, immediately, if Karen had let him in. Wouldn't you? I have no doubt that this guy's feelings were hurt. But who cares? I think we all had a normal reaction to this that night. Don't you agree? Tom's party turned out great, by the way. We all laughed and had a great time.

    Wow, what an absolute bunch of assholes your 12 to 20 "friends" are. Not that it's necessarily cool to go to a party that you weren't invited to, but honestly, how can any of you look this guy in the eyes without feeling shame, ever again?
    I think you are all disgusting bigots and wouldn't move a muscle to save any of you from certain death. Perhaps you'll let us know what company you work for so we can add it to the list of companies we should boycott.

    What relevance does his skin colour have? Unless "certain people" is a euphemism...

    Assholes with superiority complexes, I'd say. You owe this guy an apology. At the very least, take him out for a drink after work.
