There is no requirement that an employee be fired in this situation. Is this person your supervisor and when they received this promotion did it move them further away from you?

My coworker called me a racist name ,, he admitted this to our supervisor.
If you reported the racist comment to HR, they should have addressed the matter with the employee. If the employee continues to make racist comments, the employer can (and should) take additional actions.

People can be fools. Racists are some of the more ignorant of the foolish. Those who blame one sex for racism are also foolish.

So its fine for an employee to display this type of behavior ???
No. There is nothing "fine" about it.

But a single racist comment is just that - a single racist comment. If addressed properly, there won't be additional racist comments - just a quiet racist in your midst. I suggest you avoid him when possible.

No. There is nothing "fine" about it.

If you reported the comment and HR addressed the matter with the employee, and no further racist comments are made at work, the issue has been resolved.

You are not going to be able to "cure" racism. Racists exist.

If you fear for your safety, call the police.
