Prejudice

Quote:
first of all, i'm not even being prejudice here. i'm stating a fact, they're making white people look bad. i didn't even say you had anything to do with it. how about this example.....why was there such a backlash against chinese from whites during the entire spy plane incident? i'm not even chinese, yet i still was messed with. none of those chinese-americans had anything to do with the incident, yet they still got messed with.
According to dictionary.com...

prej·u·dice Pronunciation Key (prj-ds)
n.

1.
a. An adverse judgment or opinion formed beforehand or without knowledge or examination of the facts.
b. A preconceived preference or idea.

2. The act or state of holding unreasonable preconceived judgments or convictions. See Synonyms at predilection.
3. Irrational suspicion or hatred of a particular group, race, or religion.
4. Detriment or injury caused to a person by the preconceived, unfavorable conviction of another or others.

I don't think you get it. Saying that one isolated incedent means that ALL white people look bad is akin to me saying that when I try to get gas in a certain neighborhood and a black lady tries to sell me drugs that makes all black people look like drug dealers.

In truth there are low-life morons no matter what the color of their skin.

If you think that these good 'ol boys playing dress up KKK makes ME look bad than you need to consider that you may be effected by some degree of prejudice against me as a white male.

I don't recall any backlash against chinese americans after that plane incedent... But if something did happen that's exactly what I'm talking about. This is a perfect example of prejudice -- a bunch of yay - hoos that think that if one country doesn't like the USA, the entire race must be the same.

-- What I'm saying is that the above described behavior is something that should be avoided. Especially by anyone claiming to be educated and/or open minded.
