i'm sorry, i can't follow what you are saying at all.
there really are people who are racists. i was personally ashamed to be from texas when those animals dragged james byrd to death behind their truck because of the color of his skin.
it means nothing to say that people who observe real hatred in the form of racism "are racists". it denies that some people really are treated differently, and denying a problem never leads to solving it. i understand that you think we should have moved beyond such primitive words for skin color and such problems but i don't think what you've written is helpful.
edit:
thanks for standing by what you've written... so many askers here just show up so they can say something and have people validate their words. i'm glad you're really trying to get people to think about the world and i really respect your honesty!

people are called white or black cause that is the color closest to their skin color, i agree, if someone was as white as a sheet of paper, that would be awful, and your right again that racism exist. We are all people with one goal, to be happy...LIVE FREE

I know, people who speak tolerance are always the least tolerant. No one who is a rascist says there a rascist, they just have preconcieved notions by the way they grew up.

As you may know, black and white are not colors at all.
In fact, we all have the same pigmentation, some more than others, and that pigment is YELLOW.
Yes, it's true, "we all live in a yellow submarine..."

Construction paper, staplers, whatever.
Racism is wrong no matter what school supply you're comparing it to.

Political correctness is bigotry against white people. It's offensive to white people because everything white people say is assumed to be racists, especially if they are conservative.
