To what 011 said…That is the news’s fault and I don’t watch it often because they rarely report on good things. All they every talk about on there are bad things.

people see what that want to see in people and most black people are not thugs it more like 5% that are the other 95% are good hearted well manner smart people but the media and people look at the bad and not the good….When is the last time you heard anything good about a black person on the news (not the president) all you hear is shooting gangs etc. we need to tell the truth.

Bruce … I will give you my answer. I hope you and everyone who reads this will understand what I’m trying to say.

First off … no one on this entire planet will ever meet the majority of people in either group. Whites, Blacks, Indian (both Native American and those who live in the country of India or Pakistan) nor any other group of people. How is it possible for anyone to say that all people of (insert group here) heritage/culture are like this or like that when they can’t possibly see them all let alone meet them all. Out of the tens of thousands of whites I have ever noticed … the vast majority of them have been incredibly decent and kind people. In no way is it possible for all of them to be evil as many would say regardless of what group says it. In turn this is also true of those who are genetically born as African, African American, Indian or Chinese or even if they’re from Mars. (smiling)

For anyone to say that all of any group are like this or like that is just plain dumb *** silly.

I am of mixed ancestry. I am not ashamed of who I am nor who my friends and relatives are. Being of mixed ancestry you can understand that I have no right or even a desire to speak negatively about anyone.

People pay way too much attention to what they see on television, movies and current world events. They pay far too much attention to what their mothers/fathers tell them as they’re growing up. Make your own decision by seeing and analyzing the benefits of all cultures as you come across them and stop the unreasonable hatred. I thank god man was given the capability to reason and make informed decisions even if sometimes they make the wrong ones.

Many see a bunch of rioters in New York and all of a sudden all blacks/whites or whoever are simply the most evil groups on the earth. For those of you who have never seen whites riot pay attention to soccer matches and the hooligans who disrupt the games just for the sheer joy of fighting. This happens in Europe constantly which is why I would be too frightened to attend a match if you paid me. Don’t get me started on cricket matches between Pakistan/India and other nations who have violent incidents in sports.

In no way is my answer intended to offend.

Just understand that there isn’t a group of people on this planet who own a monopoly of racism/hatred/bigotry. There is a far higher amount of good in all people and a lesser amount of evil in all people. It is a personal choice for everyone. We as people choose to accept what we allow in our hearts and I’m happy to see that the majority of us have chosen wisely.

No person is born bad. We learn it as we grow older. All groups and classifications are capable of and guilty of doing things that general society find repugnant.

There are no perfect people. No one is better than another. Learn it. Live it. Peace. (smiling)

That is a pretty big generalized assumption which I do not believe is true. Remember there is White trash and Black trash. Why do Black people just assume white people are ******?

3 THINGS
THE ARE TOO PROUD
TOO CONFIDENT THAT THEY KNOW EVERYTHING
THEY WANT TO TAKE OVER

because they are so few and far in between

In life, people are always quick to point out the bad qualities in a person. If you are ****** towards black people, you inevitably do that. As a result of this ingrown personality trait in people, they find it hard to highlight or to accept that there are really good, decent black people that exist. Some even believe that the only decent ones are those in government, which is utterly wrong.
I’ve got a relative who lives in the Bronx and she and many of the people who live around her are black and good, decent people. Though they live in an area people don’t consider to be the best of places to live, they are the nicest people to be around. People need to understand that Generalisation is what is crippling the unity among people, and is also prolonging the racism issue. We need to stop generalising and get to know each other.

I had never even heard of the phrase “ghetto black” until I came to this section. I have only ever met decent black people in my city. There are only a few here, as the city is predominantly white but it’s getting better. In 2000, I saw the first black man here! They were all in London. But no black person, asian person, latino person has ever been rude to me. There is no such thing as ghetto black here.

The only “ghetto” people here are white. We call them chavs and they live off government money. That being said, some of them can be nice. Not all of them are ****** *****. The majority of white people (chavs or non-chavs) are cool and decent. I have a few white friends who are cool and my best friend happens to be white.

I think this “ghetto” thing is melodramatized on this section

And why do you want to disrespect the English? Again, that’s prejudice. Why do you feel that you have to disrespect anyone?

Blacks are an easy target- and I am convinced they do not want blacks to be anything more than ‘ghetto thugs’- that eases their ’superior - inferior complex.’ There have always been, educated, creative, blacks that are shakers and movers. They have either been stolen from, ot just simply overlooked.

when you refer to that type of person. know in my experience I rare come across that type of person. and they are prejudice in all races and nationalities and faith. they are a minority. I have many friends and see good in all people. like you I suffer the idiots and harsh people. I wish they be clean messages on here to answer but its filled with ****. so I look here to entertain, learn and study. it is sad that that few numbers feel like a lot more. but inner city people are different they don’t like suburban and **** teaches **** to those on the border line. they may **** for no reason because those people often has the most kid on welfare.
