Do you hate me for being different from yourself? If so, why? How did you reach that point to be a hater? Even if you do hate me for being different, would you still work for me if I were a business owner and I hired you? Also, would you not want to be my co-worker and would you decline a job if you had to work with a minority citizen?
I find racism very strange and unlogical. I've known many predjudice and racists alike who drive foreign made imported vehicles that were made by yellow or brown factory workers. I can't for the likes of me understand that.
Also many White American's might hate Mexicans but why do they continue to eat the fruits that were picked by Mexican farm laborers?
If you hate, I want to know why you hate. If you are predjudice I would like to know why you insisnt on pre-judging people and lumping them in certain categories long before he/she had the chance to open their mouths and display their true Characters.

I would have to agree with you that SOME people are racists. But not everyone. And you know why do people see us and automatically say we are Chinese. People like that are just so stupid. They call me things like "Ching Chong" and all that s***. I am sick and tired of that. To anyone who is reading this I am Filipino. Get it straight.

Most people won't admit it but to some extent we all have some from of stereotypical behavior in us. It may not be on purpose, it just is. I can't say if it is good or bad. I know that some people assume that light- skinned black people are full of themselves and that all Arabs own stores the list goes on and on. I took a speech class that talked about how we do judge people before they open their mouths. Some of us may look at another person and think we know everything about them based on their dress, appearance, mannerisms, etc. It helps us to find out things about us, what we don't like, won't tolerate, can't handle etc. However, I don't care for people that don't like people based on color, religion, culture, race or whatever and because of this they don't get to know other people or even try to get to know other people because they have an opinion about someone that they don't care to change, that they are so used to having. I can understand to some degree why some people may feel the way they do about others, but at the same time I think that it is something that needs to be changed. By the way, saying that it will never change is definitely not the way for the so needed change to happen.

Sometimes the racism is actually more on the Minority's. For instance if as a White person I go drive thru the Black Neighborhood in some areas its not so safe for me and the people want me out. I've worked with Blacks and Mexicans and feel there as with any peoples good but there are those bad apples no matter what type or color. Racism will never be illuminated....

If you are "yellow" as you say, then you know that many Chinese hate Koreans hate Japanese hate Philipinos etc. It is not a "white" issue as you describe.
I agree with you that I don't like it either but I do resent when someone like yourself blames it on whites. It is a problem all around.

I don't hate someone because of what they look like. Beauty...or skin color or anything is only skin deep. I hate someone for the way they act or treat me and my friends. Easy as that.
And if you a friendly, nice person it wouldn't matter one way to me if you were a minority citizen.

If you are yellow, get your liver checked. You may have hepatitis.
If you are of oriental parentage, I have no problem with you unless you have crazy political and/or anti American ideas.

I don't hate you.
But seriously, if you're yellow, get to a doctor.
It could be jaundice, and that can lead to liver failure and death.
