Answer 7

Hey ; i totally agree with you .

I NEVER judge people on their color or ethnicity.

Answer 8

I completely agree with you. There are many different reasons why people are racist but I think it all comes down to self-love. For example, sometimes people like to put others down because it makes them feel better about themselves. I also agree with the person that said that all actions like these come from hate, and hate comes from fear.

Really though, there is only one race: the human race.

By the way your english is great, but change "does" in your question to "do." I'm not trying to criticize you or anything, only trying to help!  

Answer 9

They don't HAVE to be, it's a learned behavior. I think it goes back to the survival instinct. When there was competition for land and food, like peoples banded together. And to justify their killing off other groups of people, the convinced themselves that they were more worthy.

Answer 10

Ja, it's just pointless prejudice. People like that are supremist pricks & they think that other races are weird, ugly, lower than theirs.

I think as a white male, ignorance also plays a huge part.

& I admit, it is usually people of my race that are the most ignorant.

Obsessed more with western ideas of beauty than anything else.

Answer 11

I'll agree with you on this one... People that are racist for the stupidest reasons.
