They are unhappy with themselves, so they "attack" others in order to feel good about themselves. They are seeking attention as well, because they didn't get it when they were kids.

I do not think that people in general mean to be racist I just believe that it comes from the things we see and the way we have been raised and it is not really any ones fault it is just the different in people.I wish I could give you something to say that would make whoever see that he does not have to be how he is being but unfortunately I would not know what to say myself.I just hope that I do better raising my child.One of our greatest presidents was black so i don't see how one can be better that the other we are all important to somebody.that is my opion for what it is worth.

Racism comes from people's ignorance: they know nothing about the other human beings outside their little narrow-minded circle. So, they create these myths about their own superiority to cover up their fear of the unknown. If they get an opportunity to discover how interesting and beautiful other people's lives are, they would change their nasty racist attitudes. The problem is--they resist enlightment and change. Try to show them the beauty and diversity of the world every time you can, and maybe a miracle will happen!

Usually, deep-seeded feelings of inferiority or insecurity give rise to a need to repress others so that their own inferiority or insecurity can be placated. Often, that feeling of insecurity is linked to a negative event that happened to them (or to a loved one) and the perceived cause of the incident is then directly attributed to a particular ethnicity or religion thereby fueling a need for vengence which culminates in hate. All in all, it usually boils down to people simply being ignorant and blaming every bad thing on someone or something because they are too stupid to try and figure out the reality of a situation or how to remedy a problem.

Because they're stupid and have no consideration for other peoples' feelings. Racists haven't been taught Right from Wrong, thats why their like the way they are. You can't stop it either, sometimes its like a desease too. If a really popular guy makes fun of a black woman just because of her skin color, the others might too just because hes popular and they worship everything he does. People are racist because they haven't learnt anything in life.

I think it partly has to do with their parents and how they were brought up. If their parents were racist, they'll probably be racist too, thinking that that is the best way. Also I think it as to do with stereotypes. Plus, some people just think they are better than everyone else, so really those people are sort of racist too, even if they are the same race.

racist people...in my opinion...almost anyone who is racist comes from a bad family...parents are supposed to teach kids what is wrong...
mmm...just ignore the people. xenophobia is normal in many countries, sadly. but there r always people in a country who will be excited to meet someone of a different background etc.

Ignore the questions - he wants you to answer them. He wants you to get annoyed. And take heart - he's probably only 12 years old anyway so don't worry about it.
