I've noticed that some people who face discrimination get angry and turn it towards others. Doesn't that make you just as predjudice?

No. I try to never, ever judge other people because one person has judged me. It just isn't fair. Should all white people be treated like **** because blacks were slaves once? No. And I know some black people do, but it's not all black people.
Why would a person who has faced discrimination turn around and discriminate on someone else. Isn't that hypocrisy?

Even though I am not a Christian, I took 2 things from that religion.
1.) Treat people like you want to be treated
2.) Turn the other cheek.
If you turn around and start treating people like that, you are stopping to their level and thus are no better than them.

Actually that makes u as prejudice or even more prejudice in my book.....I get discriminated on all the time..Because my mother is white and my father is mixed with Mexican-Indian...But that doesn't bother me...It makes me sightly upset knowing that someone could be that stupid and also it makes me upset knowing that...that stupidity still exist in others....But we shouldn't turn and treat other the way that we have gotten treated...Like you wouldn't treat your friend for how they did you but only what they intended to do.....Hope that answers your question as best as possible..In my words anyway....

The anger we carry for whatever reason can destroy us. Others may not treat us as well as we treat them but it never solved a problem but getting angry at the other person. Just agree to disagree and go your way and let them go theirs.

I don't at all. And I have been discriminated against a lot. I think it makes you worse than the one who is being prejudiced in the first place.

I try to treat people just. Like if someone wants to be mean to me than do them no favors or set an example if you cross them again or at the time of.

I grew up and lived most of my life as a victim of racism, but that doesn't mean that I'm going to do act that way towards others. It's uncivilized.

Everybody can handle it differently due to the emotional & mental illness that the person carries within them

You observation is a good one. However, from first experience, I can tell you that, I have not done that, but in a number of cases, I have seen people doing that. I have seen people of color doing that, specially when you are in their territory.
(sigh) wish we lived in a perfect world.
