why is it that when people ask racial question about being disciminated against or want to compare stereotypes to reality that people get mad and try to make it seem that we all are feeling sorry for ourselves? I'm mixed so no this isnt a white black or any other race thing. and no I dont want a reparation I just want to know peoples personal reasons, opinions and feelings

Phoenix had a good point. Because it's harder to deal with something rather than mocking it, people tend to make fun of what they don't want to understand. It wouldn't matter to me if you were green, my child, you're still Human. We've got to start putting aside all these colour issues if we want to try and get along. Good luck, my dear. Blessings.

Yeah, what's your question exactly?
You didn't use proper sentences.
If you mean to say, why do people get upset when the question of race and its issues are asked?
Minorities (like myself) might be annoyed because they are sensitive to being stereotyped. However, Asians receive positive stereotypes and may not get upset as easily. Other groups definitely get stereotyped negatively, and they are viewed as people who always feel sorry for themselves and stereotyped as not hard workers.
They'd definitely have possible reasons to be insulted if they believed that you're trying to stereotype them.

I'm not sure what your question is but the world has been dealing with race/culture/ethnicity from the begining of time. It just takes a real person to look past all that. What would the world be like if we were all one race? Boring but hell, peaceful!

hun...every time there is a question about racism or races, they dont think the time to read the question but just answers and think "oh it's a racist questions" and blah blah...and most questions here are to be sensational like "why do black people...." or "why do all white people...." or some **** bout slavery....simple as that.

People rather believe lies then reality. Truth hurts and if people knew the stereotypes were false after using them to describe people, they would have to admit their own bigotry.

Haven't you noticed that everytime someone ask a question that is demeaning, it always starts with , "I am not a racist, but....." and then the racist's remarks start. I wonder just what many of these people think a racist is!

Because just like discussions about religion and politics, they don't want to deal with it.

This world is crap....CRAP!!! FULL of (excuse the French) @@#@#!@%$^$^$@!@#.....@##$@^%&%@#!!!!!!
Anyway....I'm sick of the "race question" and all it implies
People have killed and have been killed simply for COLOR.
And if the whole world were to be ONE COLOR......then, we'd all start getting killed based on wealth, social status
There will always be something that divides the people of the world.
