Good question
But don't all criteria we assign to measure up people have soem bias or teh other:
Inteligence based on our set standard of being intelligent
kind based on our religion or upbringing
beauty again customs and social norm
justice what we think or believe to be the right thing
etc etc
there will always be bias and stereotypes the best thing to do I beleive is be open and liberal while passing judgements

What else are you going to use? If it is someone that you just saw and don't know anything about them?
- colour of their skin
- clothes they are wearing
- hairstyle
- distinguishing marks - scars, tatoos, piercings
I think it's a natural human condition to start forming opinions as soon as you see someone. Now acting on those opinions would be ignorant, because you really don't have much information at that point.

By feeding into the media and allowing society to control their minds on who to outkast and befriend. You will find good and bad in all pigments of skin.

Best to judge the individual by his actions which will unfailingly in time reveal his true thoughts and motives.

It is easier to judge a book by its cover than read all 500 pages.

maybe its wrong but if you were mugged twice by black guys you would tend to distrust all blacks. its something thats both learned from experence [ your own and other peoples] and taught by others. every animal makes judgments based on many factors and people are no different. somewhere alone the line we decide that different is dangerous and act accordingly. is it right no but it happens

if anyone judges a person for their skin colour they are a horrible person even if it is a good comment about them!

Got me. What does that have to do with anything? I have never understood it and when someone says derogatory things because of their skin color- I swear you can see steam come out of my ears!
Some Christians are racist, which makes no sense. When Jesus said, "love thy neighbor as thyself" he didn't add-unless they are black, or white, or asian....

Too generalized a question, even a white racist can have a black for a friend or close acquaintance.
