Those are good points.

As humans, we are predisposed to violence. If there is something that we don't believe in, we fight it. If there is something different, we try to change it. Blacks and whites are the same. One is black, the other white. Each wants to inflict it's will upon the other. It's funny you mention asians and hispanics though. I worked for a guy who was from Taiwan. The more I got to know him, the more I despised him. Not because of his work ethics or the way he treated me.....No, It was his complete and utter hate for anything to do with anything that was not from Taiwan. He could tell where someone who was asian was from simply by looking at the most of the time. He said it was their facial features. If that failed, he would ask them their name. If their last name was "Wang" or "Wong", they were instantly on the approval list for anything this guy offered no matter what thei credit was. Unreal in my opinion.

In America, we continuously fight ourselves trying to bridge the racial gaps. In (some) other countries though, they use race as a safety card to keep out others who would do them harm. Sad, but true.

Someone above mentioned Jews. Funny, that one. They were killed by the thousands. Gassed and shot while they were unarmed and helpless. Seems they found a way to figure out who they were. I would be willing to be that a person from Poland would be able to pick me out of a group of people without German descent and say that I was at least PART German. Which would be true. I am also part Russian, and part Welsh. These three things make up who I am physicaly. However, in the end, I am an American. Yes, I have the blood of other countries in my veins. So does a black man. I have other races in me. So do most black men and women. Why are they any different because they have a bit more pigment in their skin than me? Well, they DO have a different physical make up than I do. Their muscles are designed differently. Their facial features are designed differently. They are more suseptable to different diseases than I am (sicle cell anemia among others). And, this is the biggie, they (most anyway) are brought up with a different mind set than I was.

Don't hate them because their black or white, show them the same compassion that you would if they were the opposite.
