What are all of your thoughts on racism? I believe that all this nonesence should be stopped. We are all humans and just because people have a differen coloured skin to ours, dosent mean they ARE different. Does it? I mean, i watched a video in school about britain, and what makes it. The presenter was coloured, and he wore a turban down the streets. He turned around one corner, and these younger men were shouting stuff like "get out of the country you black rat" "get that turban off! It dont belong here" But the presenter was born in britain and raised up here. I think it is not on. I want to hear all your thoughts on racism too. |

The common stereotype for African-American people is usually associated with gangs, rap music, "ghetto", and so on. Personally, I think it's horrible. There are bad African-American people just as there are bad caucasian people. No race is superior. edit- Typo. |

I think everyone are humans, why should you be treated differently because of the colour of your skin or your nationality? Its just the same as treating people differently who have blue eyes or black hair. |

Exactly my point. But then, you always get the yobs.. Still, there should be a huge penalty for being racist. |

^Actually I think racism was around ever since colonialism spread accross the globe, and took black people as slaves. Some people (idiots) still see black people as 'beneath' them like it was like in 17,18,1900s. Thats were i believe racism styems from - History. |

I am not racist. I think that all people are equal, even though they aren't always treated equal. No race is superior to another. We are all people, whether we are white, black, red, yellow, or purple! If there were purple people, I would definately want to meet them though! That would be so cool to have an unnatural colored skin! lol! |

I agree racism is bad but people forget that racism works both ways. The news is plaqued with things about how the white people are being racist towards black/asian people but nothing about the other way around. That is what is annoying. And most people arent racist, they believe in freedom of speech, its just what they say is on the list of things you arent allowed to say anymore due to over political correctness. Hell, african-americans didnt care back in olden days when they were called by the 'n' word, they even address eachother by it. There are more ethnic racists than caucassion believe me it just never gets reported by the media. |

Racism is wrong, period. Sometimes people use that to their advantage though, I remember when I was working for a company which shall remain nameless and a customer had a problem with something and got abusive, he accused me of being racist when all I had done was my job and nothing more. I had back up from my superior and the customer eventually admitted he was wrong and it was resolved, when someone thinks you are being racist and you are not I find that very irritating. I treat everyone the same regardless of gender, sexual orientation, race..etc etc. (Murderers and the like I make an exception for obviously). |
