What is it about Race/Ethnicity/Religion that Scare People into their Closets when US 'preaches' Tolerance?

Question

There are some questions here that 'question' the possibility for Civil Unrest if Obama wins or if McCain wins. They are in under Goverment Sections, some even make into the Religion Section.

As seen by Los Angeles lives - where there are over 190 ethnicities and having survived to Racial Riots based on one word - 'colored' man.. or de we merely label Los Angeles as the Docking Station for practice....

Answer 1

I think this is a very good and intelligent question.  The roots of the political, media and religious use of fear and division to sway and control large populations probably goes back as far as politics, media, religion and fear.  The U.S. has been more and less tolerant since it's creation.  Since 9/11 the Bush administration has taken the understandable fear it generated and amplified it as much as possible to keep the citizens afraid, stupid, angry "patriotic" and obedient to authority.  The thing I find ironic is that the super rich masters of the world who perpetuate and exacerbate these fears and hatreds don't share them.  Their fear is of anything they don't own and control.  But that's a funny part of the nature of fear.  It transmits well from the top down or bottom up even when the source of  the fear differs from person to person.  It's quite contageous.  Fortunately, so is empathy.

Answer 2

Tolerance is a rude word.

Think about it.

If I say I tolerate you.. its sounds rather insulting, doesn't it?

If anyone told me they tolerated me I would probably deck them!

Answer 3

Dude, can you like rephrase this question cause like dude I like barely like understood it.

Answer 4

No we are not scared by race. We are doing the proper thing by looking at where they stand on the issues and their experience. By not doing so would let the false concept of race win.

Answer 5

None of that makes a bit of sense.

Answer 6

Los Angeles is a smoggy dump hole full of crime.

Thanks to the illegals who have ruined it!
