I'm Hispanic, but I'll be honest here, I'm a little cautious when meeting people of certain ethnicity's. But it really depends on how they initially present themselves. I'll be polite to everyone regardless though, unless they give me a reason otherwise.
No you are not a "Hispanic".
You MIGHT be descended from one or more of the Iberian peoples, perhaps with an admixture of other tribes.

"Hispanic", refers to the various people who resided in the disestablished Autocracy of 'Hispania'.

Everyone gets racist thoughts occasionally, but not everyone is a "racist".
I treat each individual that I meet equally.
I look down on many cultures as backward, unsustainable, or just plain idiotic.
I have racial views towards white people because of life long experience being discriminated against and even physically abused by white people though I don't present myself stereotypically in the slightest. (I'm black and from Arkansas).
But I also have racial views towards my own race for continuing stereotypical actions which allow white people to still view black people in such a way.
I dislike people in general. The only time I'm really racist is when I'm cracking racist jokes, but really I have no fucks to give about the color of your skin or where you're from.
I'm with Anime7.
I would not say I am racist, but if a person presents themselves in a way that coincides when a negative image that I have (if they dress in a doo-rag, sagging pants and other "thug" get up, I will associate them with a thug) then I am fairly wary to approach them. I don't think racism has much to do with this, but I am not going to say that I've never asked myself why the fuck the more highly ethnic areas of town have to be so damned ghetto.
No, a few bastards just ruined it for their whole country.
That's why people are racist. Because they easily believe the stereotypes. Not all of them are thiefs, terrorists or mental sick,...
When you learn to know them better , they're really fun to hang out with. Ok, not everyone is like that. There are a few psycho's out there. So watch out...
not at all, the opposite really. I find people of my own race to be boring, just predictable really. I know their thought processes cos they are much similar to my own, they have their genesis in my culture. Other races however are intriguing to me, and boy if I had no intrigue in this world, gee I don't think I could go on living. There's nothing I ever want to do to disrespect that.
Everybody here considers me very racist. However, whether I actually accept that label is an entirely different story, as you'd first have to define the term "racist" - which, if you think about it, is actually a surprisingly vague and subjective term.
I did define it.
Apparently, you are either ignorant, or illiterate.
It means, a person who holds bigoted or partial views of a people or tribe.
Why are you still spreading this claptrap around the world?
Just use 'people' or 'tribe', instead.
Please do not use -ists or -isms.
I have many Black, Mexican, and Asian friends, any insults are not serious and is for fun. I'm a white, I'm part British and part Native American (On my mom's side, we're related to a royal British family, and on my dad's side, we're related to Pocahontas). I don't consider myself racist, nor do my friends.
No not a racist here... But proud to be white!
I mean.. It's not, blacks are cool. It's just what ends up in the toilet sometimes look alot like that surden skin color.. Black.. So..... Well, i love black chicks!
I come from a family of extremely racist people. I myself am not racist but I do have a problem with New Zealand natives (Maoris). They are literally the most ignorant race of people I have ever come across. No, I'm not just talking about one or two bad experiences. Every single time I come across these people I lose a little more faith in humanity.
well I prob am a bit racist or maybe just not used to Ethnic Minorities most people are white I see so when I see someone who is not white of course I am going to get curious and see the difference and maybe sometimes not like them, but I have never insulted anyone because of their race or Nationality though so I guess I am just curious when I see a minority not racist.
I am rasist in a way, because i am scared of what i don`t know, and since i don`t know the culture of the persons i meet.
But it only lasts until i get to know the person
Eagerly waiting for tommythecat to comment "white power" because that is standard for him :P. Anyway I am not racist because I think everyone is the same. I just don't like people to be honest
