How about if we all acted like the human beings.

This is a strange question to me. How does a colour of people act? All white people don't act the same, that's for sure and all black people don't act the same. People are people and they act as individuals not as a race or culture. This is purely stereotypical.

Your question illustrates a serious lack of perspective. It is actually just good old fashioned racism. Cultural prejudice has at least some relevance, but racism is just the most simplistic and flawed aid to judgement available to the most short-sighted on this planet.
A black guy who was born and raised in England will behave very differently to a black guy born and raised in Tanzania, both will behave very differently to a black guy born and raised in say, Finland.
A white guy who was born and raised in the US will act and behave very differently to a white guy born in Ireland, both will behave differently to white guys born and raised in Germany.
The big problem is that American culture has soaked into every country across the globe and has defined black as ghetto, and white as middle class. Simplistic, but unfortunately a view which has poisoned both white and black peoples perception of self on an international scale.
Education through travel fella, I suggest you try it.

How does one act a color? What action is equated with yellow? or brown? It seems to me you are stereotyping. On the inside, I think we are all one color. I don't know what color you are, but your insides look just like the people you are wondering about.

It's a terrible thing to generalize, and extremely racist. There is good and bad in all people, and we are of one race!!!!! The human race.
