You might consider this a stupid question but seriously, why do some people have to be racist? What is the benefit of being racist?

It doesn't do any good but it just causes problems. Do you think that people who are extremely racist have never been faced with racism, meaning that they don't know how it feels like, so they go overboard sometimes with their insults and comments.

Being on this site the most racists people are the white people because like you said they have never experienced racism because there the ones doing it. It is so sad, racism is a sickness and these idiots is going to learn the hard way. One day you could be in a crisis and you need help and that person that you was against is the only one that will be there for you. I am not saying that only white people are racists but the majority of them is whites especially on this yahoo site.

Some people become racist, because of the racism that they've experienced.A lot of black American are angry at White people because of the way their ancestors were treated.Some White people become racist, because of the negative experiences that they've had with minorities.There are a lot of different reasons for why some people are racist.

Wow. This is obviously severe. People simply presume that your profile snapshot is meant to to seem very similar to you. I recognise precisely the way you believe. My situation is vice versa, I use white profile pix more often than not however I'm truthfully black. They're both utilizing sensible feel and aren't because this alternative or are randomly guessing.

I'm white, and surprise! I do experience racism. There are many forms, not just black and white, but class, weight, education....and there's loads of it here, let me tell you! As long as people feel the need to be superior to those around them, or those that are different....there will be racism.

People are racist for different reasons. Some because they need a scapegoat to blame fo their own personal failure.. others because they feel their culture is being invaded and trivialized by others. Some people just love to hate.

Because they feel the need to point fingers at anyone but themselves.

Ignorance, pure and simple. Whether it is race, religion or culture, some people really dislike what they don't understand, and have no desire to learn about.
