If you had to go save a car full of 3 people that had just fell in the lake, and you knew nothing about them and you saw a black hand, a white hand, and a hispanic hand... in all honesty which one would you chose? you can only save one and they are all the exact equal distance away from you, you dont know the age or the sex.

Why answer? You're prepared to call most of us racists anyway, so what's the point? Your question is designed that way.
Suppose I, a white, saved the white. You are prepared to call me a racist. If I pick a black or brown hand, will that make you feel better about race relations, knowing that a white guy drowned?
No offense to you, but these "what if" type questions designed to make us examine ourselves are quite silly.

This is a really strange question and I don't think that it is something that is realistic. If your racist then just admit it but don't try to get other people to go down with you. And by the way, since I'm biracial, I would try to save them all. Which ever one came out of the accident would be the best pick for me.

No matter what the answer - this question is a set up to say you are a racist!
It seems like the people scampering around worrying about somebody being a racist are the only ones who are really promoting racism.
All the rest of us seem to be getting along in the world really nicely.

I guess since I have to hands, I'd grab 2 people. The 2 that are moving the most because they would probably have a better chance of survival!

I would throw myself in the river with them....And save all 3 of them. There has to be a way I could save all of 'em...and of course I'm not racist...I love Hispanics, Whites, & Blacks.

Well you can always tell a male hand from a female hand. I'd save the female first. If there were no females I'd say "ehhh, not my problem. Too many males in the world anyhow."

now if it was a doctor, a lawyer, and a welder. I would save the welder. Considering all I could see were the hands and the one with all the callous's would be a real PERSON and not someone who thinks they are all that.

I am guessing that you are the more racist for asking such a question. In my life, I have learned that people who harp about race are usually the ones who are the most intolerant and it means the most to them. Why would you ask such a messed up question?

I would simply stretch out my arm, and whichever grabbed onto me first would be the one I saved. don't ppl realize we all bleed the same, we are all gifts of God. Not one life is worth more than the other.
