Curious if anyone will come out and state that they are prejudice against any certain group or groups of people and if so why? Consider this my question of the day.

I am not sure of how you would interrupt it I work hard at not being Prejudice and treat others as I wish to be treated until they give me cause not to. There are groups that I chose not to associate with for blood pressure control purposes for example such as left leaning liberal socialists or the bloods and crips or al-Qaeda or MS13 to name a few.

Any one who claims to not be prejudiced is both prejudiced AND a liar. To be human is to be prejudiced. The word merely means to "prejudge" somebody without really knowing anything about them. The word has been co-opted by the black "leadership" to mean "white people don't like us" but it has nothing to do with race at all.

Lots of prejudice on this site. Just put up a post mentioning Walmart or food stamps and it will appear in droves.

Yes! I hold well defined, preloaded rules of contact and conduct with certain people. It has very little to do with race, color, religion or nationality.

• I HATE gangbangers, drug dealers and pimps because they are useless pieces of crap who drag down their neighborhoods, families and the community as a whole. For what! A few extra bucks. I don't care if they are black, white, latin or asian. Shoot them all.

• I Hate meth addicts, crackheads and the rest of the drugged out scum who will steal anything, rob anyone and generally destroy a community the get and stay high. It is very sad and I wish I could help them, but the time has to be right and until them they are as likely to kill you to get high or for food as anything. So I am prejudiced against them and desire to have nothing with them. I also have my eye out for the recovered addicts for a while, I have been burned before. (I don't care about color here either).

• I hate lazy people. Specially fat-lazy people. Everyone takes a break in life, but when you live your whole life as a ward of the state-receiving money just to be alive. I have no respect for those people. I also fail to understand why anyone wants to live like this, under the poverty line with nothing to show for your life. Welfare, FDC and social security disability insurance are all equal opportunity masters, why would you choose to live like that unless you had no choice. But many do. (This is a fixable prejudice, get a job).

• I hate anti-gunners. I don't care, if you can't understand the 2nd amendment and the rights defined there, you are and idiot. If you don't like guns, don't buy one. (This may apply to all segments of liberalism, I will have to think about that).

As I write this, I realize that I picture white people as I think about the people who I have prejudice against. Hmmm. I also think about white people mostly when I think about the women I have dated. Redheads, blondes, a few brunettes, mostly white. My family, about 85% white. Damn! I must be a racist too!?! Oh, hold it! I have diverse group of friends, all races. Never mind, I'm not a racist, just prejudiced! :)

Distrust of people different than yourself is a basic human instinct, whether it's different cultures, clans, tribes, races, or class. Denying this exists is a ridiculous concept.

Now if you want to try to rise above all that, more power to you. It is difficult to unlearn instinct, but it can be done.

The instinct is there for a reason. It's a survival mechanism. Learning to override it is important for trade and diplomacy. In our modern society, these things still exist, of course. Racism is the one that gets all the attention, but there is classicism, culturalism, and even tribalism deeply ingrained into even the most liberal thinking modern man. Just look at the different uniforms we have in our society. Coats and ties indicate business culture and/or success. Jeans and work boots indicate working class, pants down around the knees indicate outlaws. To deny profiling using this method would be stupid and less than constructive.

Humans are sentient beings. We are capable of lying, misinforming, and general deception. Other than natural camouflage, no other animal is capable of any of these traits. So keep in mind that just because someone is wearing a suit, it doesn't make them a businessman. They could be a scam artist. Many of the young people today imitating the dress and demeanor of outlaws are not outlaws at all, but are wearing the disguise as a means of defensive camouflage, or to simply bolster up some lack of self esteem.

So the first thing we need to do is realize that prejudice is not the same thing as racism. Racism is a form of prejudice, but I can prejudge someone based on dress, accent, immediate actions, type of car they drive, etc.

So if I see a white guy wearing a suit walking towards me and I make no defensive posture, no matter how subtle, I have prejudged. If I see a black youth wearing the thug uniform and I switch sides of the street and keep my eyes on him, I have prejudged. But is it because he's black, or because he's dressed in a tribal/cultural uniform that I've learned to distrust and/or don't understand? Or maybe a bit of both?

This is where racism (and I mean the modern use of the term, not the literal definition) falls down. We concentrate so much on the color of the skin, that nothing else is important. I moved to the other side of the street because I was prejudiced, but was it because I was racist? Maybe if a black man in a suit came down the street, it would barely register any more than the white guy in the suit?

This is where our current hysteria over racism falls down. All we see that is important is skin color. Actions, uniform, attitude, circumstances... none of these things are important. It's all about skin color. But it reality, we prejudge in every interaction we have all day long. Prejudice is a simple survival instinct.

I'm prejudiced against those who wear towels on their head who strap on vests with explosives and blow up buses full of women and children. I suppose I should be ashamed for being such a bigot, but somehow I'm not. I'm beyond hope.
So in essence you are really against their religions prime way of meeting their god and 72 virgins...

You hater you!!!

Of course I am. I took prejudice in like mother's milk as I was growing up, and it's a part of me. Rooting it out, countering it with logic, fighting against it, this is the work of a lifetime. And when I finally croak, it STILL won't be gone. But I am not a fool, and I know prejudice for what it ti.

Others... As I am reminded whenever I go on Storm Front, or look at some of the posts here, my opinions and feelings are not shared by all others.

I'm the biggest racist ever!!! Ouch! That term means nothing to me. If you perpetuate a stereotype, odds are I want to see you in severe pain for an extended period of time. What I hate most of all are people that refuse to acknowledge statistics. Is it a lie that a certain minority commits the majority of crime? Naaaaaaa you is just a racist. I'm the minority in many cases in my daily life and guess what. You will be treated like the person you try so hard to portray to be until further notice. **** you, I have enough friends.

If you define prejudice as dislikeing someone by their look or demeanor upon initialially seeing them then there have been 5 people I have been prejudiced against in my life.

Other than that their is no one that I have had a prjudice against. And I cannot explain why these few people have caused such an utter revulsion in me upon first sight. Interesting to note, all five of these people turned out to be the worst human beings I have ever had the displeasure to meet. Two of them are dead from being murdered, if that tells you anything about them.

I am not certain that actually qualifies as prejudice, somehow I had a sense of who they were upon sight and it was quite accurate, so I was making my assumptions quite accurately even though I did not fully understand why. Another interesting thing is that they all had the same imediate reaction to me.

As far as being prejudiced against any people or belief system, I am not prejudiced in any way, I find it fascinating that we have differences and I think it is what helps the human race to survive.

I do have a little trouble being around gay guys, I don't think that I am prejudiced against them, I just dont understand the idea of it, and find myself very uncomfortable around them, maybe that is prejudice I don't know.

Interesting thread. I just read a members comment about calling me a bigot and earlier a racist.

It started with me saying I hate Germans. I hate them for their crimes against humanity and our country. I also stated that even though we are at peace now they as a nation are more than capable of reverting back to a dictatorship type of government. They have a history of it. we don’t. So it’s harder to understand that attitude.

I hate Mexico because they have not evolved past a corrupt and worthless state. Their ineptitude has been a bane to America for many years. I am sick of paying for their welfare. I got called a racist for that....even though i am half Latino.

I hate homos because they demanded that their sexual perversion be made a civil rights issue. Now the government is involved and is forcing the American people to accept this perversion as legit. The only way I know how to help you understand how I fell about it is Necrophilia. If the thought of someone getting off by sleeping with dead people makes you feel sick. Well I feel the same way about homos. Its different but both make me sick to think about.

I hate people that use race or religion as a excuse to commit violence.

Am I a bigot and racist? Sure I guess maybe I am. I certainly am prejudice. You cannot make everyone happy but you can be true to yourself.

People suck.
When I see a person with their hat on sideways, wearing pants that are 4 sizes too big, I "pre-judge" them to be a moron.

I am a socially horrible person...
:D: I need a t-shirt with that on it ... and a plaque for my desk.
