Everyone is racist.

Its a human instinct.

I am human race.

You keep saying it is human instinct to justify your own feelings, you can keep believing that if you wish, it is not my job to open your eyes, although I hope some day they open.

Show me some information please on why you think racism is human instinct, because having 4 children of my own, and teaching them about the world, none are racist, racism has never been an issue, nor have I ever had to tell them that people of different beliefs or races are equal, they just kind of seemed to know that.If it was a human instinct....it would of become an issue, much like teaching them not to put things in their mouths when they were little, that is human instinct, racism is not.

Racism is taught.

Your claim of human instinct to be racist is simply incorrect.

It maybe taught but it is also inherent.

Define racism.

I am not a racist when it comes to women or men or friends as long as they don't lose control.
I am racist when I make generalizations about a race and I will not apologize for that.
Every race has good and bad qualities, if you have the good qualities I will like you, if you have the bad qualities I will dislike you and that goes for every race.

rac·ism

By that definition I am not a racist. I believe everyone has the same chance at achieving their goals and by those terms I do not discriminate.

That's the dictionary version, and pretty much sums up what it is, so if you don't fit that catagory, CONGRATULATIONS!!
You are not a racist!

It is ok to have pride in what and who you are,race included.
And defense is defense if threatened, doesn't matter who is threatening you, you should defend you and yours.
You said earlier about defending your family which is your race, the only time you would have to do that is if it was racism aimed at you and your race from another race, otherwise it would just be defense in general..

Perhaps what you need is a new definition for what you are instead of thinking of yourself as racist.

Thanks. That was all I was trying to point out.

As a nation we have to defend ourselves from the hate crime card, the racism card, its a double edged sword. It is one of the major planks of socialism. Consider yourself well informed and a humble person with integrity.
