True as that may be, the very fact that he used those words constitutes abusive and / or racist language and / or behaviour and should not be tolerated at all by anyone. Additionally, as he admitted saying that under oath in court would ordinarily be enough evidence for a Guilty verdict for anyone else. HOW it is said does not excuse the language.
He claims to be 'disappointed' by the verdict of the FA. I think he is 'disappointed' because he
knows for a solid fact that he thought his reputation would save him from any punishment. He seems to think he is above the law. Should be interesting to see what kind of reception he gets next time he plays.

In my view FA should have forgot the fine (it equates to 10 days wages for Terry) and loaded the ban to a more appropriate length - at least three months/12 games would sound about right to me.
