We all know there is a lot of tension about different races. It's not even a black white thing anymore. Are any stereotypes true? Examples?

Keep in mind, I'm not racist. I'm just curious as to other people's thoughts.

It bothers me that my own race only considers racism to work one way, which happens to be white people in my case. It seems like racism is wrong and it should be wrong both ways.

I actually have a problem with every race, oh hell yes I'm a racist (biracial White/Oriental), but what may shock you is the parts I'm mad about but you'll understand the why. Every race is unique and different, to say we're all the same is an insult for those who study science and know the difference. We see different breeds of horses and though they are horses they each excel in certain things (Clydesdale can't outrace an Arabian but it sure can pull more weight), we see different breed of dogs but we would never consider using a Chinese Pug to take down a person when a German Shepard is available, and yet we see all these idiots who make the claim "we're all humans, we're all equal" say this yet we all know it's so full of crap.

Need proof? Luckily for you most likely you have a TV and watch the college basketball game and tell me how many Orientals are playing? Are those college discriminatory, where are the Asians running up/down the court? Now let's look at this realistically most people know Orientals are shorter, represent about maybe 35%% of the world population, and yet don't represent this in American college or Pro-sports at even the 4% of the population total of any pro-sports. Yet I can point out similar circumstances about Blacks and higher education, go to any campus and see how many Blacks are in Calculus and above, Bio Chemistry, or Accounting courses and you'll see a disproportionate amount of Orientals and dearth of Black presence (link 1).

When two different breed of a particular animal mix (ie dog) it seems we're not shy to say that most likely it's going to get the trait of each parent but most likely it's capabilities will be in between each (lets say a Poodle and Doberman mixes, size most likely will be in between the two, speed in between the two, and intelligence in between the two). We hear (at least the lying) people constantly say "we're not different" but we see proof everyday, Every African country that was an European Imperialist expansion was productive under White rule had a productive environment but as soon as it was handed to Blacks they became a wasteland begging for handouts. We even see this in America, parts of major American cities were grand, then blacks took over a part of the suburb, they became a ghetto, and crime stats go thru the roof (link 2).

There are certain racial realities but most won't admit it. I guarantee that most people would rather live in any other neighborhood but a poor black one, I bet if you ask anyone they would rather live in a poor Mexican, Oriental, Jewish, Indian (Asian and American), Puerto Rican, White, etc neighborhood because they see the news at night and get the score (this is just Black on Black violence, they seem to reserve their worst for those that are of other races, especially if you're White, link 3). Most people when burned by fire will be wary after the first time yet statistics shows more than 32% of all Black males will go to jail which means a good chance when around them you can be a victim (link 4). I have my personal pecking order to watch, I don't believe we're all equal, and I bet most people roll-up their windows a little more in some neighborhood and if you need proof take them for a ride and tell them to get out in certain neighborhoods, you'll get a different answer and level of concern at different places.

PS: had to correct the 25% to 32%, shouldn't under report crime.

No, no longer offended in any respect. i think of it rather is all eye-catching. large subject rely. RTD2, thank you! Your answer replaced into so exciting and resonated a great deal with me. I continually say i'm regularly German, yet while my grandma died, we found out we had some close by American blood. examining your positioned up approximately form O blood taught me that my ancestors have been certainly close by American. My grandma replaced into black-haired with olive pores and skin. i appear as if i'm a million/2 white and a million/2 some thing else. I even have very darkish brown eyes and easy-weight-to medium rosy beige pores and skin. All this makes plenty greater experience to me than thinking i'm merely English, German and Dutch! My infants are biracial and that they don't get offended the two. human beings anticipate they are Hispanic commonly... ETA: thank you, too, Gnu S...that replaced into exciting to study.

anyone who plays the race card. it annoys the crap out of me.

ex. if a spanish guy is training another spanish guy he'll say 'do this for your race, but in spanish'

and when they use the race card to make everyone else feel guilty, yes i know bad things have happened in the past, but its stupid to bring it up every ten seconds and incoperate it into every conversation.

I live in San Diego and my biggest problem is with the people that come across the border illegally and then act like I am the one that is doing something wrong. I was born in America and I speak English. If I go to Mexico I have to learn to communicate with them......they dont learn English to make my life easier........why should I learn Spanish when I am an American citizen in the USA??

I'm bothered by my own people who think they aren't racist. It's even worse when they get rewarded for it.

And then they wonder why White people don't like them?

Every race has good and bad ~ All people regardless of color or race or ethnicity have the free will to make good choices or bad choices.

What bothers me about rabble-rousers is that they continually try to stir the "race stereotype" pot when there are others that are really trying to get along with their fellow human beings.
