THANK YOU, I thought I was the only one who thought that. Some of the answers these people give are based on pure racism and no fact. You won't believe some of the answers I've had on some questions...Unbelievable.

Two reasons:
-trolls who enjoy using racism to provoke people
-people who are racist in real life but are unable to express it openly and so use an online forum such as this.
A lot of low level discussion boards, like Y!A and craigslist rants and raves, have a lot of such trolls.

Probably in the scheme of things is not that much.
I'd say majority of responses are not racist.
Obviously there are lots of racists out there and people also sometimes like trolling. Annoying people have a tendancy to post more.

I think of it this way: Millions of people have access to the Internet. No one has any idea of who anyone really is. Common sense dictates there will be a few ******* among the bunch. And yes, there are some really racist people in the world.

Because it is one more place to have racism. It is every where.

Because there are a lot of stupid people out there that think people should be treated differently because of their skin color. Big deal that someone's skin pigment is darker than someone else's! I'm white and no other person, white, black, brown, purple, whatever, is better than the other.

I suspect the reason is because it is so anonymous. A racist can get away with saying outrageous, provocative things and never really be called to task. Basically, anonymity is their cowards way out.

because the moronic racists can hide behind their anonymity and they don't have to face the people they are trying to offend. It's really just a form of insecurity and lack of self worth that causes them to say such things.
