I know it's nothing compared to slavery and all those rapes and lynchings, but it just tickles the bejesus out of me anyway! Does it mean I have a sick sense of humor? I'd hate to think I contribute to racial intolerance or stereotypes.

Let's first look at your initial assumption, that it's "fun to frighten white people." Before we move onto "why," we would have to determine whether that assumption is true. While it may amuse you to "frighten white people," it is not a universal. There are those who find frightening people of any description an enormous waste of time, practiced by those who seem to feel as if they are "less than" those whom they frighten, and are compelled therefore to have some sort of effect on them.

Anytime my friend (big black guy that wouldn't hurt a fly) sees an old white lady she usually grabs her purse, so he walks up to them and ask them for the time. He has a sick sense of humor but u may be contributing to racial intolerance. That's not a good thing.

The question should be...
"Is it fun to frighten people"
The answer from a normal person would then be... No.
If i found it fun to frighten black people... i would be a... Racist.
So if you find it fun to frighten white people specifically... well work it out. You would be no different. Put the slave card away, the Jews don't play the holocaust card.

You would hate to think you were contributing to intolerance and stereotypes, but isnt that exactly what your question does?

No it's not...but you didn't exactly explain how you "frighten" them. If you meant by just being a black man, then yes, that's pathetic, but "fun" because some white people are just backward like that.

It means you're ignorant and petty and yes you ARE contributing to the stereotype.

Somehow I doubt you could frighten me, actually you would probably trip and fall over your baggy pants and untied shoes running from this white guy.

Its so sad to admit how ignorant you are, you are the reason a lot of white people won't take blacks seriously. How could you be fighting against racism when your committing the same acts you should be ashamed of yourself.

I'm a white woman but I agree with you; white people are hilarious and scare very easily, especially white men with their little weiners and humungous insecurities.
