I still get racist abuse. They are teenagers, mostly men, rarely women, never black people, asian or any kind, just white teenagers, boys. ******* assholes. no offence to you or the other guys here.

I think its because as humans we are afraid to come into contact with anyone from a culture that is alien to ours. So say if we have an Asian neighbour who goes to the temple say 5 times a week when the average British Christian goes to church less then that we not only wonder why but to make ourselves feel better we alienate that neighbour (this is just an example by the way....).
I'm British-I consider myself 'english' I am not white though so I guess I don't fit in with the stereo typing that we often face in the UK. Why do I consider myself english? Well I was born in the UK, I constantly bicker over the weather, taxes and politics and it gets on my wick when I see children younger than me pestering oaps in this day and age! Bring back respect...sorry that's a different tail. I also get bothered by a minority of the public who feel its acceptable to sit around and twiddle their thumbs and sign on as a source of income when simply they are too bone idol to work! I think you get the picture of what I am trying to say.
So as an english man I would say to you-you should only stop your children from playing with children who you see as a bad example, e.g. bullies, thugs etc. Someones colour or background doesn't make them bad or anti-english.

Because there are always idiots in any society. And I think some well meaning steps to promote 'Multiculturalism' have backfired and been very divisive. But I have hope for my country. We are and always have been a proud mongrel race, the product of wave after wave of immigration. We are good at assimilation, and I think our collective commonsense will win out in the end.

Racism is already became a major part of every human beings' life. It is like an oxygen. It's like your own outfits. It's like the sky upon you. You 'wear' and 'devour' racism and you like it or not have to live within it.
You won't and cannot escape racism wherever you go in this world, even in the safest place on earth there is still a bit hidden racism for sure. Even if you go to the holiest church or mosque ever you will still, I repeat...... still..... find a tinge or stain of racism in there as well..... Racism is really everywhere you go in this world.
All we gotta do is how to deal and face racism in a mature, easy going, happy and positive way.
Dontcha think so?

Because not everyone agrees with how we all should live.
Every race in the world has a different view on life and guidance that should be followed. When races meet the, the differences become apparent.

Always has been, always will be. There are just bad people in this world. We all just have to try to get on with our own life's so that the human race can move forward and prosper, whilst all of the prejudice morons get left behind to rot.

NO!!!!
There is racism because of a few bad eggs keep people thinking their racist thoughts and it makes them look bad for their racist thoughts. We will never be rid of those few people who make racism easy, the trick is to not judge the whole people for what a few do.

Because past and present governments thought education was expensive and now they are paying the cost of ignorance.
