Racism is WRONG. Anyone who takes any form of pleasure in being nasty to others because of their skin colour so go to Hell, and the lowest level at that.

I'm confused as to what you're trying to get across here.

[marafi]

Well my question to you is do you think racisim is right or wrong and why? And have you ever experienced in a event of racisim..

[iheartriku]

Racism is wrong! I myself am a victim of racism. Now and days its not so much racist people physically hurting you, but they treat you different from others. They put you below them. Which is WRONG. I believe everyone is equal. I just really hate racisim! Maybe one day people will over come this. But not anytime soon.

Right and wrong are just words, it's what you do that counts.

[iheartriku]

True, but your acts are either right or wrong.

First of all, that makes no sense. You just basically said, "Right and Wrong don't really matter, but if you're right or wrong, that matters."

Second of all, you missed the entire point of that statement. It means that right and wrong are entirely opinionated, and have no meaning. The real question should be, "Do you act racist?" or something similar to such.

[iheartriku]

hummm...never really thought of it that way....

Being racist is wrong and I have to admit I been racist before and it has happened to me. Im a black male, tall and have muscles which means that sometimes I get followed around in stores. One time me and my friends had went to Hibbett's to look at some shoes. The whole time we was there a white lady followed us to make sure didnt still. The time I was racist was at school. This new kid came in class. He was wearing black from head to toe. The first time I looked at him I thought these things: he was Gothic, he cut himself, he was gonna blow up the school, and he was just bad. But after being his partener for a project we talked and I found out he was a nice guy and he wasnt all those things I thought he was, he just liked the color balck.

wow Vexond. You proved urself how you shouldnt judge a person from there apperance but what they are really like in personality. and Savior well if we asked that question and people were really truthful then you will be seening fights of racisim on this thread thats why i didnt want to ask that question in the first place. Even though it is a real question it would be rare that people opened up upon racisim.
But Vexond i know how you feel cos trust me i every time i walk into a shop tons of women and men look at me thinking i have a bomb in my bag and that im a terroist.. Seriously lots of women and men are very funny how just by looking at the person they know exactly what they are like but that isnt true well for me.
And once i had a joke about me as a terriost to some of my friends they laugh cos they knew it was a joke. The women looked at me soo angryly wanting me to leave her shop. I didnt care i carried on walking and chatting to my friend like usual as if nothing had happened.

Also the other day a little boy fell a jewish boy. I asked him cos he fell 'Are you alright?' And gave him my hand to help himself up. His mother or maybe it could be some other women gave me the most scarest look as if not to touch him he might explode with me touching him not a pretty sight but i didnt care about the women Ha lol :D

moral laws have been set since the beginning of time, along with laws to establish it. Murder is not moral, being kind is. because being kind benefits for you and others, while murder reaps troubles for you. You reap what you sew

but that is not what this is about.

i believe the whole hooplah of racism is a load of crap. seriously, no one from the slavery times is even alive anymore. Black people need to stop saying "i'm so oppressed". When them and other "racially accused" people treat themselves like they are lower than everyone else, others will treat them that way. If people learn to act that we are all equal, there will be no problems of racism.

I don't know if it's on accounts of revenge (which would be an extremely stupid idea, considering they should realize they would be taking revenge on people who weren't even alive during the slave times) but many black people insult white people as well, with racial jokes and slurs, and also hispanics and asians. Ever heard of Chappelle's Show? Exactly.

"Damn that white-ass b*** is so ugly". See what I mean? And especially with the whole "white is coming" sony psp ad, that wasn't even marketed in the U.S. until the sensitive Americans got involved, was added and taken down. That ad was not meant to make black people feel bad, it was to advertise a product. GET OVER YOURSELVES.

When people stop acting all "whomg i'm so oppressed people hate me because im black" or things such as that, then we can see progress in racism. No one is making them feel lower than they are but themself, I never hear anyone make fun of black people, mainly because of the shame and fear of being shunned as a racist. Yet I hear plenty of black comedians and just regular people saying crap about the other races. Those kind of people, need to seriously...STFU

They don't practice what they preach, and just like they ask to not be racially insulted, they insult others racially.

When things such as that exist, the world will never feel equal among eachother.

just to let you know, this is all my opinion, and i'm hispanic.

[Chaotic_Countess]

I agree on most points with Eclipse.

Most, because I believe in no such thing as right and wrong.

Anyway, I think a song from Avenue Q sums it up nicely:

Everyone's a little bit racist, it's true.
But everyone's about as racist as you
If we could all admit that we a racist a little bit
Maybe it would help us get along.

No, actually. If they were "Set" then they wouldn't happen. If murder was so naturally bad, then it wouldn't happen. If opression was so naturally bad, it wouldn't happen. If the laws are so set, then why are there murderers, and racist people? People will always hate and kill each other, that doesn't make it right or wrong. A serial killer kills many people, so you kill them. Less people suffer, since they aren't murdered. You're kind to the serial killer, they kill more people, more people suffer. Doesn't that break your laws?

Murder and Hate are inevitable, and therefore not right or wrong. Right and Wrong are only opinions. However, murder is most often considered wrong with humans because of our social workings. We evolved this way, we naturally like to work with people. Often times, we have to in order to survive. So, killing one would be at a loss. However, in a large group of another animal, where they can survive better, and killing one would give social advantage, or be one less mouth to feed, murder is good. They'd kill for territory, for food, for mates.

Your morals are just another way of surviving as a human. Still, that doesn't mean that they apply to everybody. Again, Right and Wrong are entirely opinion, and not fully set.

Anyways, I suppose I should comment on my acts of racism. All I can assume is their heritage, and that's all I ever assume. If I see a man with a bad tan, looks rather fat, but is obviously caucasian, I can assume that he has western europe ancestory, and most likely lives in an area that gets a good amount of sunlight. Most likely the south (Since, he's fat, and they eat quite fatty food down there.) However, I can't take it to fact, so I never do. I judge people by their acts, and that's all. If I see a black kid wearing, as they say nowadays, "Gangster Clothes" I can assume that he either can't afford clothes that fit him, or he's partof that type of culture in some form. Of course, I really don't think about these types of things anyways, but to just hypothetically say that I think these automatically.

I don't see you, all I see is what you do.

I just want the racism to end, were all equal. I get followed around in stores(by the way im hispanic) if people dont like me at school they call me a wetback and stuff. so yea racism is tottaly wrong.
