I'm not. I've gotten into discrepancies with others of color, but I never judge people who are of the same ethnic background thta I got into trouble with. Let's say if some one that isn't of your ethnicity attacks you or hurts one of your loved ones. Would you hate on their ethnicity? If you do, would that make you a racist? I guess it would.

I'm not racist. I hate racism. This world cannot survive with it. We should all live as one. Racist people are all arrogant people. Thank you for not being a racist. Racism will crushed the world into tiny pieces.

I have a temptation for being a racist, although most of the time I'm not.
Being a Korean I tend to have a grudge against Japan, or should I say the Japanese government. It's mostly because they never admit their own war crimes done against us and China. They love to exaggerate history and especially the Nanking massacre. Just like how the Ancient Egyptians were.
For me, having a bad government just makes the people look bad. Just because of Stalin, it isn't rare for ab individual Russian to made fun of as a "communist", and I still see people poking fun of Germans by doing the Sieg Heil, or such stupid and irrelevant questions like "Do you hate Jews?? Do you like Hitler?" Please don't think I'm one of these people. It's a temptation I have and to be honest, I've fallen into it a few times :(
Never was a racist for skin colors/cultures/religions though. Skin colors are just a stupid reason to be a racist, people think other cultures from foreign countries are dumb because they're very ignorant of an entire world outside their own country (or world lol). Religion, never really crossed my mind so much. Even though I am a Christian (not a very good Christian, but still) I am smart enough to never criticize Muslims or Buddhists by declaring a Crusade on them if they don't convert to Christianity.
If let's say... a crazy Jap killed all of my friends and family, I wouldn't hate Japan, but just that Jap.

I'm not a racist. I don't think people are or greater or lesser value because of their racial origins.
I do think that race can be part of the environment that socially influences a person, and that could result in a person being better or worse than another person, but that is not a direct result of race. It is an indirect result.
I believe that we are all created equal and it is incumbent on each of us to try to bring out the best in others, regardless of the things that may have influenced their earlier lives.

Wow. This is obviously critical. People simply presume that your profile photo is meant to to appear very similar to you. I understand precisely the way you consider. My concern is vice versa, I use white profile snap shots quite often however I'm truthfully black. They're both making use of functional feel and don't seem to be on the grounds that this alternative or are randomly guessing.

I am married to someone of a different race. Of course we've all gotten into discrepancies with people of other races. The same as we've gotten into discrepancies with people of our own race. If someone of another race attacks me or one of my loved ones I would be angry at the person but not at the race. There are bad and good in every race. To hate someone solely on their race or to assume bad about someone based on their race is definitely RACIST!

I am not.
The question raises a whole lot of other questions.
Why is it generally acceptable for a black person to call a white by names that are derogatory but is called racism if done by whites. This seems to be the general trend the world over. I am just curious.

I have an old saying I've heard regarding this: its better to be perceived as a racist than become a crime victim (or rape victim).
Far too many whites ignore the increased animalistic tendencies of blacks and pay a steep price as a result. You don't see hardly any white people running around smoking crack, robbing and raping people who you see a group of young black males involved in this sort of behavior all too frequently.
