White Supremecists obviously have self-esteem issues that they deal with by overcompensating and overstating their supposed supremeness. No person who is comfortable with himself/herself whether it is race, religion or whatever slam their beliefs down another's throats unless they know they hold a weak position. True strength comes from within and it isn't necessarily the biggest or nastiest of the group, sometimes its the quiet ones like Ghandi.
Any extremist element in any cultural group brings the whole thing down. Something we all learn in sports, you're only as good as your worst player and the same holds true for this.

It's detrimental to any race to have hatred out there, even to the race that thinks it's superior. For one, it generates stereotypes, two it corrupts people into hateful and provincial thinking, and three it gives people a reason to hate back.

Most white supremacists are uneducated red necks. They give white people a bad name.
