Karzie....not all of us do, you just see what you want to see. It seems you are expecting it, so there you go. I'm a Massive White Fellow, my wife is Japanese. We experience some problems now and then, but we don't look for it. If people don't like what they see, too bad for them, because my wife speaks Spanish Fluently!! They lose out on a nice couple of people. Stop looking for problems, and you'll see the solutions

I don't think this is a fair question. For the most part, white people aren't any more racist as other other race. If I, being white, were to walk down the street in an all black neighborhood, do you not think I would be looked at as not belonging???? I think white people are just tired of being blamed for every wrong that happens in the black community.

because some black people have made it there lifes work to make white people look like the big bad monster that is trying to bring them down and they have ruined it for everyone so until people quit whining and crying about who gets the job at mcdonalds it aint ever gonna stop so accept it and hopefully u can do the right thing and treat everybody with the amount of respect they deserve and not the respect that the petition and cry for

That's an awful lot of generalizations. Not all white people think like that. Could it be your a bit racist yourself? You just seemed to throw us all into the same group. Stop with the paranoia. Live and let live. Peace.

it all depends on the area where you live. Some areas are more culturally diverse, so people are more accepting of other races. I'm latin too, and living in NYC isnt as accepting as it is living in Coral Springs, FL...maybe you've just encountered the wrong people. Sadly there are a lot of stereotypes out there and narrow minded people who stick to their ways.Its a lot easier to follow a stereotype than to actually get to know some one..

Because they are scared...that's why every single time some (the keyword here is SOME) white people see someone middle eastern or indian they think that person is a terrorist and give them a funny look.

People are ignorant and we're probably brought up that way. Unfortunately, its seems like for them its such a difficult tast to look beyond stereotypes and someones race to actually get to know the real person.
