Today I was looking on some of the resolved question because i notice the thumbs i never knew what they were so i started looking at my answers and the people whom got best answers and i notice one was answer at a 97% and I went to look at the answer and i notice the answer was a person whom had something against other raciest and thats find because the person whom ask the question was not me but the answer related to African Americans now what urked me was that yahoo this answer rightly so Middle eastern are the new African Americans in this country now I know that that's not how it really is however why would a multibillion company allow such answers and i relize we all come from diffrent walks of life and we don't have all the same beliefs and personal there some things i don't care for but i try to use discrestion in my wording i think this reply was appauling and cold and maybe think yahoo is somewhat of a bigotry for allow a answer like this to when over what do you think?

I have also notice comments, as well as "so-called questions" that are obviously racial remarks. I always report them as abuse; however, I never witness Yahoo! Answers taking those questions or answers off this site. I question what is Yahoo! Answers definition of offensive racist remarks and people simply expressing there opinions? Where is the thin line?

first thing you should know is I am not racist. I'm am a Caucasian,45 yr. old female.(notice I didn't say white)
you can't control everyone and everything that is put on yahoo or any other site for that matter.
It is unfortunate that it all boils down to this crap and we All have to be watching what we do and say!
I didn't exactly care for some of your comments about the middle easterners
but who am I?
and who are you?
we all just have to deal with what is!
we should all get along!
you can't tell me that you love everyone of all races and I can't say it either so.....Here we are back to you question ....
My answer: It dosen't matter what I/we ask or answer it's all irrelevant unless you want it to be important
And yes I also think a lot of the stuff ,that some people write, is very appauling!

I'm having a hard time following what you're saying. Are you saying you asked a question and the Best Answer chosen was in opposition to what you asked?
when you ask a question remember to go back and pick Best Answer.
That is a big problem on here, people ask questions and don't go back and pick the Best Answer a few days later, that allows Voters to choose and usually the person who answered will go back and vote for their own, not supposed to but you know it's done.
P.S. No offense but you really, really, really need some writing skills! Whew!

I have no idea what exactly you are asking.
This is my problem behind the questions here on Yahoo Answers considering race. It always seem that the person bringing it up or asking a question about another "ethnic" group is actually veiling their own bigotry when they ask the question.

part of being American and having freedom is freedom of speach. We can say what we want to. It is not Yahoo's fault if an answer is appauling. When an answer breaks the guideline rules you can report them to Yahoo.

If you don't like answers that you don't agree with getting voted "best," stop being so lazy and pick your own "best answer."
Ditto to what all the others said about sentence structure and punctuation. Now I have a headache, thanks. :(

either that or they just don' t care or they didn't read the answer then there is the freedom of speech thing if the klan can still rally with their bedsheets people can still say they hate another race and not get in trouble for it that is one of the costs of free speech people can post their hate anywhere
