• I find Racism offensive

    • Racism
      There's something about derogatory terms for people that just turns me off. If a person is derisive towards a person or group simply because of their heritage, it makes my skin crawl. Even people that use terms to describe other members of their race sicken me. Regardless of the meaning that YOU have attached to this historically negative term, there is still a precedent of hate involved that does not excuse you from being ignorant. So that's my peeve...closet racists.

    Well stated. Racism stems from fear and ignorance. And I like that you don't excuse the ignorance. Stupidity is not terminal. There's a cure!

    You have my vote... I don't think people will ever be "color blind", they will always see the difference in race, religion, politics, but I wish we could all learn to celebrate and appreciate the differences.
