None of my friends are racist. The thing is you can choose your friends. I choose to have friends that are broadminded not smallminded.

No, but I had a friend who was.
In high school, he was part of one of those Christian families who go around doing performances and talks about God at schools, as one of the few religious people in school I made friends with him, he didn't mind that I wasn't Christian. One day I came in to find he wasn't about, by break time I found out why - he had taken a knife (butter knife from canteen) and slashed open a Chinese guys face – which says how much he disliked different races to do that sort of damage to someone with a butter knife.
For a long time that made me wonder about myself – i.e. why I attracted such a person and how I could have been friends with him without knowing that. The way I figure it racist friends is ok, for you to judge them would make you no different to them, but if your racist friends are racist to that degree, it's not a good thing.

Yes. But they were NOT raised that way. These people became racist by being around many people of a particular race and had a series or sh!tty things happen to them over and OVER and OVER by the same race! After a while of getting stabbed in the back, the racism settled in. Just goes to show you that sometimes giving another race a chance can BACKFIRE. My friends do not wish hateful things on these other races or make trouble for them, but they don't trust them and they'll never date them and such...

If they have their own opinions,and as they are supposedly living in a free country, then they can't be racist. That word means nothing, but is used by brain washed twerps.

Not my friends...that's not the kind of people I choose to hang out with.
My family, on the other hand, is a different story. Racist, racist, homophobic, you name it. I'm so ashamed to be around them when they start talking and acting like that...especially in public! But you can choose your friends, and you can't choose your family.

No, I have been fortunate enough to be around people who respect everyone and everything. Those are the kind of people I like.

No, we all go about fully armed, with wonderful guns!
But, we don't talk to or acknowledge moslem men, who are ignorant, and follow the beliefs of a pirate anti-Christ, child molester!
