Unfortunately this is a forum where they feel comfortable. They can "enter", remain anonymous and voice their views. Here one can act like a bafoon and never be identified. At least so they think!

It depends what you mean by racist and ignorant. Some people take offense at any little thing and lash back by calling it racist. For example, if I were to say anything derogatory about jews I would automatically be branded an "anti-Semite" and accused of committing a hate crime, even if what I said happened to be true. I would suspect that people who scream "racist", "ignorant", and "anti-Semite" really harbor similar feelings themselves and are trying to compensate for feelings of anger and rage.

Don't take it personally. Yahoo's like most internet websites is very lax in taking care of these offenders. Consequently, by doing nothing Yahoo makes it a safe haven for anyone to preach hate and racism. People such as these feel safe to spread their societal disease because there are no repercussions. They feel free to strip down and let out their inner demons. Just remember, you are perfect the way you are and no one can take that away from you.

Because they can, faceless and nameless. They probably feel that if no one knows who they are it makes it OK.

because something is so wrong in their own life, they need to put others down to try to lift themselves up - pretty sad isn't it?!
