Okay, I know that this isn't going to stop it from happening or anything, but I just want to know how many people are on the same page as me. Do you agree that when someone posts questions that are racist (or anything else ignorant for that matter), the best thing to do is not answer? I understand that some people feel the need to speak out or make sure their voice be heard (myself included, sometimes) but are we not just fueling them up for another stupid post by responding to them in the first place. People who are racist tend to be ignorant (and sometimes childish) and they feed off of our responses. Don't you think it would infuriate them if they NEVER got responses, if no one stooped to their level? Unfortunately, I don't see this happening anytime soon :-(.

I'm glad I'm not alone out there. I agree with you, Chris_Rolle, to a degree. I think the reason most of us feel compelled to answer is because #1, what they are saying angers us, and #2, we are hoping to enlighten this person. But a lot of the people who are posting these questions are doing it to get a rise out of others (and of course, because that is what they feel/believe). If they get responses, whether good or bad, they feel victorius.
