    Racism

    What I meant was that we're all human and universally the same race so racism is an idiotic moral in society today.

    No, we are not all the same race. Example, Africans evolved separately from say
    the Japanese. They may have started similarly, but evolved in separate places. This is also why I don't understand why people think each race is of equal intelligence.

    Racism

    I beleive racism came from three things:

    1. Cash
    2. Countries/land selling and stuff.
    3. People getting really educated/ or thinking too highly of themselves.

    Think back in the caveman day's if they just had a new baby that was black do you think they would care? NO! Why, because they didn't think there was a diffrence between them they were of the same status. But after people got money and land they think they are alot better then others. I am not saying education is a bad thing you shouldn't have it, I encourage you to have a good education but it is how they were taugth. Do you think the Native Americans were taught " Now children when you see someone white/black or of any other race you shoot him or kill him somehow ", well no they were only taugth what they needed to know. So to your answers I will reply I think racism is allowed but not in a kill all blacks or Mexican's kind of way I think mind way, such as ignoring them , I say that because I beleive people have a right to think whatever they want to.

    Race doesn't matter to intelligence. It's just how the group of people from their race feel about education and their confidence and attitude towards it. I'm Asian and I do fairly well in school, and I know Blacks and Hispanics to do better than I.

    we are all humans beings, our blood is all the same color, we are all supossed to die some day, then why make differences because the skin color or social class, i think is the dumbest thing in the whole world, all humans beings got the right to live in this planet, theres not a single person better than other, dont hate each other for being different

    Actually, believe it or not, we all came from Africa, but that is evolution and this thread is not going into discussion of it.

    Anyways, so we all have the same simple plans for skin color

    This happened because some people stood lazy, and/or uneducated while others got famous or rich. But that still isnt a reason to think you are better then another, like some celebrities think they are gods, well they aren't.

    Racism

    HEY!

    FInally i find a topic where most people get along, and basically agree
    instead of "FUCKIN GAYASS CHRISTIANS"
    "NO FUCK YOU AHTIST"
    "FUCK YOUR GOD, CHRISTIANS ARE A BUNCH OF FAGGETS"


    *cough ok. so

    ya Racism is wrong..
    the fact that you are THINKING in your head that a certain race and how they look act is wrong....is wrong

    But I can confidently say. that all of society is twisted with racism!
    EVeryone..

    think about it.

    I am racist too, but I do not act upon it.. like the Americans who segregated them.. but just fuckin watch TV


    why is it always the fucking black guys that are stealin the van and robbing the store,, or smokin weed, or Rapping?

    why is always known that Chinese people have chinky eyes?

    that all Mexicans should do Lawn work, and public works?

    I mean you hear this everyday..even as a joke w/ your friends..
    = 'haha go mow a lawn mexican *laughter*

    I mean i guess you can have thoughts of racism, but it should never take control over you where, you physically show hate towards them.

    I honestly beleive there is good in everyone.. in any race...


    ANd i also bleive Chinese get fucked up in the U.S. too much
    jesus..just leave them alone!

    Always critisizing them for their rice, chinky eyes, small dick, w/ the werid accents...

    They are going through alot, and there is no such thing as White supremacy, that allows a certain race to dominate over another...

    one thing that pisses me off so bad.
    is my friend is Asian...and he has his own group of freinds

    and when i am near them..They never call him by his first name
    ..they call him Asian..
    his name is joseph

    i'm like.."WTF..the next time they call him that.. i'm just gona be like... "hey..did you know his name was joseph? and just walk away haha

    they'll be like..shit..

    Ya.. so I beleive racism will never end, but segregation can end.

    People have preferences.. I don't want to marry a african ameriacn woman and other things.. there's nothing wrong with that.. but things like..
    "fuck thta black guy robbed our store" "fuck all black guys are like that i guess"

    so ya :)
    think about this, and lets live in a peaceful world :)

    Racism

    Oh, hello there. It's me again, the gay ass athiest.


    Wrong? So me looking at a race as a whole and saying "Wow, that race holds back the advance of a nation due to their statistically PROVEN FACTUAL shortcomings. I do the same with every race. All have their pros and cons, some better than others. But to say all races are equal because all people are the same is dumb. Blacks are physically bigger and stronger than whites as a whole, FACT. Jews are statistically smarter than whites, FACT. Men are statistically smarter than women, FACT. Athiest are statistcally smarter than christians, FACT. The average salary of a white man is 10 grand higher than that of a black man, 24% highers, FACT. The average IQ of a black in america is 18 points lower than that of a white in america, FACT. Blacks make up 12% of the nation's population, but comprise 37% of the wellfare rolls, FACT. That same 12% makes up over 40% of our prison population, FACT. Blacks have a tendancy to ruin school systems as they drive down test scores, thus running off teachers and funding (I.E. my school, only one more semester...)http://www.insidehighered.com/news/2007/08/13/race, FACT.

    So basically, I label races by what they accomplish as a whole. I don't judge a person before I ever meet them, allthough I will say "that person is Jewish, hmm I'd bet they are smarter than that black person i don't know." Could I be wrong, yes. But as a whole, as a RACE, some are better than others. Period.

    Racism

    i see your point..
    but i didn't mean to say that 'racism' just thinking it is just horrible ..
    i meant it is wrong..
    but like i said.. every human being does it..

    and racism is wrong BECAUSE you are pointing to everysingle person in that race.

    what if there is an inteligent black man??
    Martin Luther King? Not saying that he was smart but, people like him..
    I mean You KNOW that out of the 100000000 people in a race... there has got to be some smart people, or people who are the opposite of what you label the race as..

    So then, the smart people. or w/e feel offended.. I mean if you think that to yourself like you said... its fine.. i sometimes think that too, but when word gets out, and they hear that alot of the people look at the Black race as a lesser inteleiget group, they are going to be offended..

    And I see yours, just like I don't like being thought of as fat because I'm an american. But my point still stands, grouping a race by what they do as a race=racism. That's my definition anyways.

    Racism

    Indeed, racism is not wrong, but it is also justifiable. Those who often cry "Racist!" are the first to be racist or benefit from racism themselves. Black and Hispanic people generally get into better colleges (with same ability levels or drastically lower even) than whites or Asians. Hence, racism is an unavoidable and its negative effects are often more discussed than its (dubiously?) positive effects. I believe that a lot of what is deemed "racism" is merely fact--ugly, degrading, foul fact, but fact nevertheless

    Racism

    the bad part is when racism comes along with hate
    were differents in the outside and maybe not all countrys or races have had the same oportunities to get a certain culture level but that doenst make 1 better than other, and dont give the right of hate others cuz theyre differents

    Racism

    I do not think of that boy as a racist, but moreover of an ignorant child who doesn't believe that people should leave their own countries, for another. I am a little sensitive to that same topic as well. For instance, if over 50% of my country is unemployed, yet we are still allowing an abundant amount of immigrants into the country to consume the jobs that are literally fading away, I would be mad too- however, that is sort of different than that person in your class.

    When it comes down to it, racism is wrong. It is not only morally wrong, but constitutionally disallowed. So if you believe in it morally, you have to follow it if you are a resident of the USA; because by living in the US, you have to abide by the country of which you reside.
