Sick of Racism?
I think I've contributed well to answers in an an objective and open-minded way. Please see my answers yourself to see. However I am sick of the racism on this site and now understand that some people are beyond reasoning with, they a plain racists. This is my last question, see what yahoo member *YAWN* has to say:

To all the intelligent, open-minded people out there, good luck, I for one, won't be back,

Why didn't you report him? Why should you leave? Make him lose his acct.
UPDATE: I reported him, I doubt I'm the first one, and look how many people thumbs downed him....
UPDATE: His answer has been deleted, hopefully his acct. too. Now will you stay? :)

I too am sick of the bigotry mindset that passes for questions and half witted answers.
We certainly could be wasting our time, but I only started using yahoo answers for a bit of fun, like a general knowledge quiz.
It is sad that a good medium for communication and learning is tainted by the very people who have need of such shared Knowledge to cure them of their ignorance's.
I wouldn't let them feel like they have won, they can never win because they are already losers.
If good people like yourself shy away from one web site there will be other bigots waiting on another web or blog site.
They can be waiting where you work or in any nightclub-pub or in your street.
You can never avoid these people no matter how hard we try, the only way in my mind, is to confront such bigots with a higher level of intelligence, dignity, humility and confidence in who you are and what you believe in.
If good people stand idle or shy away from the monster that is ignorance then it has a habit of devouring nearly everything in its sight.
I hope we all can keep the promise of never allowing such a thing as genocide to happen ever again.
But every hurricane of a forest fire first started with a small lit flame. We therefore can all be in position to put out those small lit flames before they seek to destroy humanity again.
So I would say, think again.

Sorry but there is a lot of ignorant people who use words and they don't know the damage they cause.
"sticks and stones may break your bones...but names will not hurt me?"
no, names do hurt people. My wife is from the Philippines and when I brought her to the USA in 1985...you should have heard the words people shouted at her..cowards..from a car...and once when some teen agers throwed some stones at her car she stopped the car and chased them down. They thought she was another ethic group they hated...she took a boy to his fathers house and he apolized for his son and he said he was stationed in the PI..and he told his son that the Filipinos were the friends of the United States..
but if I got to Japan they call me "joe" and also in the Philippines ...so i get used to that as I got an Uncle JOSEPH..so i think they think i am him???lol..
good luck..its a cruel world sometimes but most of the people are good..

It seems you can't say anything about 'rude' stuff, even if it is a joke and you certainly can't upset the christians, but Answers will let anyone get away with racism and interestingly, if you make a joke or say anything derogatory about christians it gets removed, but you can say what you like about Muslims/Islam - now I think all religion is nonsense, but how can that be right?
Sorry you're going because of the fools.

please don't leave a site you enjoy because of an uneducated shallow little boy,we're not all like that,i get persecuted on this site because i'm a catholic,not by everyone of course but it's the people who are not mentally able to give an objective answer if they disagree that give abuse..those people i just feel sorry for,i hope you change your mind,if you give good answers and make people think with your questions i don't want you to leave,then you'll be leaving room for more of the dimwits to join...and there is not enough room for any more of them..well wishes whatever you decide..

d ont let them beat you. You really shouldnt leave, unless you really feel you have nothing else to say. Ignorance & smallmindedness doesnt get anyone , anywhere. Your obviously an intelligent woman who has alot to offer, & I would like to know that there are enough people like you out there to counteract all the idiots like him.

Have you though that if you don't return to this site then you are letting these ignorant little sh!ts win.
Screw em, they do it just to annoy people without any real comeback against them, they clearly have very small balls and probably dare not fight their own battles out in the big wide world, they really are just sad little worms who are using sites like this to make them feel big and get a hard on.
They are probably all very ugly, very unloved, very smelly, very untalented virgins.
It's only my opinion!

pleas dont expect not to come across people who are prejudiced, because you are only setting yourself up.
Alot of white males ,and me as on feel rejected by black people because i dont have any black friends and its not for the want of trying.
i am over six foot tall well built smartly dressed good mannerd aware intelligent,etc etc etc .
I have noticed a lot od dissmissive remarks about immigrants black asian chinese indian bangladesh etc
i try not to take it all too seriously.
I have liosteneed to white momen speak when they are alone blavck women,white men black men etc cetc etc \nd they all have their own jargon about other groups
you are obviously sensitive and that quality is too rare.
