Yes you can be prejudice against lots of things. Not necessarily a race but a behavior that is common amongst a certain group. I don't believe it makes you a bad person. wikipedia =Fallacious extension of ones own negative past experiences to the general case can be harmful; it can be termed bias, or more colloquially, "lumping". If a person has developed the concept that members of one group have certain characteristics because of a sour past acquaintance with a member of that group, s/he may presume that all members of the group have such characteristics. For example, a person who has had a series of bad relationships with members of the opposite sex may develop a prejudice against that sex, thus adopting the prejudice known as sexism. This is typical of all prejudice: racism, linguicism, ageism, religious intolerance, heterosexism, prejudice based on differing political stances, etc.
So I believe it can be a misconception or misunderstanding of a certain group, not necessarily making that person bad.

yes, especially some old timers who were brought up in a different era and would do no harm to anyone but have doubts
about certain relationships between a diversified society. There
are alot of Archie Bunkers out there, harmless just a tad mouthy
or a bit prejudice. Sometimes , you get a chance to change their
way of thinking and those grumpy old men or women become
teddy bears.
