I am against both racism and reverse-racism. I am a white male, but I strongly follow MLK's philosophy of being colorblind.
I seem to be a small minority in that sence, in the days of BET, the African American beauty pageants and scholorships, and entainment awards.

Im very much against racism and revers racism. I get so tired of hearing other races talk about how they are so mis-treated by another race.. Nine times out of ten its NOT a race mistreating them but a selection of certain individuals. Another thing that gets my blood boiling is the good old double standard. Meaning for EXAMPLE: A black person calls his friend or someone they know the “ N” word. This could be done out of rage or just as a greeting. But thats cool. BUT if say a White person says it just as a greeting like “Whats up N..” Everybody gets all bent out of shape... If a word is going to be derogatory then it should be cross board...

Depends. I'm against bashing someone based on the colour of their skin, but by rather what they do. No matter how much you preach it, racism will always exist because of the way people are brought up. Chinese people are brought up to always be safe so they drive at 40km/h in a 60km/h zone THINKING that it's safe (and before you yell racism, I'm chinese myself so I should know what goes on in my parents' heads when they drive). That's the chinese stereotype. I can go on and on about whites, blacks, muslims, but bottom line, without racism, this world would be a pretty dull place since everyone has conformed.

It's been said before, but it's worth repeating: Racism or any kind of prejudice is due to ignorance. People who think less of someone because of race, religion, sex, or whatever, usually don't know what they are talking about. In my opinion, it's a waste of time to hate someone because there skin color is different than mine or they believe in a different greater being than I do...

I am against Racism, but the fact is that the people who cry Racist are usually Rasists themselves. Also People who cry Discrimination are the ones who are discriminating against others.
I have seen too much of that sort of thing.

I agree. Racism in any form sucks, as does any type of prejudice for any reason.

Yeah. Your against racism as it pertains to you perhaps. I am also against racism as it pertains to me. I don't think black or hispanic people should be racist against white people and vice versa.
