Look, racism & discrimination obviously aren't good things, but each and every one of us makes value judgements every single day of our lives. Many of these judgements are based upon stereotypes, our upbringing and of course, our own experiences. For you to intimate that you're completely blind to such thoughts and feelings is pretty disingenuous.
Having said that, basing feelings PURELY on race or sexual orientation is ignorant and narrow-minded, BUT I see nothing wrong with judging people for their behavior or judging people on the practices, which I may find to be unacceptable.
Note, I didn't say HATE, nor do I suggest any specific course be taken against those I may judge. But I also have the right to avoid interaction with them. Like it or not, we all do this. Denying it is simply dishonest.

I suppose its basic insecurity. If you don't understand something you should fear it, right? It is a shame that people are taught to hate and fear the things they don't understand. People should actually embrace the differences and learn from them.

because some people like thinking negative because they feel superior then. but theyre really not in reality. since their lives suck so much, they feel they have to bring everyone else's down as well.
