I am personally against all racist remarks, and stereotyping, how about you?
What do you think about racism in today's world?.
Do you think it is worse today, Or is it just about the same as it has ever been?...
Fallyn----I like how you put that! Sounds right-on to me!
Duke-----thanks!
It's definitely ignorant, but racial I'm not so sure. They've never met a poor jew? Never met one that was homeless?
Of course, it's easier to hate someone you think has more money than you. Here's a religion that embrasses family, traditions, thrift, education and hard work. Maybe instead of resenting that, we should look at it harder.
moon platoon----There are some racists and profilers in the world and they don't mind saying so. But I thought they could do it in a manner that wasn't disrespectful.--- there was only one I objected to, and I think these here are okay in that they stated it simply and others answered it.
Thank you for stopping in and commenting.
Fallyn----Thanks for commenting. I think you are right. People don't know that they are a lot of the time.
papajack----Thanks, I think the post is going fine....
Thanks everyone for your interest in this post

Why do you want to hurt me, Sheltercrow?
Do you know how much crap I have taken from other people because of my continued alliance with you? I have had people tell me they won't post on my blog because you are posting.
They keep on telling me how much of a "Jew" hater you really are, and here you are for I 'd say about a week giving them more reason to back up their claims.
Yet, I still refuse to block you. I don't want to block anyone, and I am not going to block you for your comments. If they cross too far over the line, I will simply delete them.
But, I have to ask you why you persist in this.....At the risk of you saying for me "to get over myself", I will tell you what runs around in my mind about you, and your comments to me....
First of all:.....What you stated above is not true,,and you know it. Yes, I am accusing you of lieing, the man who even in his profile says he is in pursuit of truth.
You say above that way art class, your first project was."My first project in art class was a picture reflecting six million Jews incinerated by the Nazi. I was disillusioned to learn that the six million figure was placed in a readers digest article in 1943 by a Zionist neophyte long before the actual incident took place. It became enshrined along with that phony barber story about a jew that supposedly cut all the Jew hair for mattresses."
Yet, you told me just a few weeks ago, that you never used to feel this way about the Jews, until I posted a piece on them, and it caused you to look it up on line, to see what the score was between the Jews and Palestinians. You also told me you never took any personal interest at all before, but now you would have us believe that you have had prejudism dating way back.
Secondly, ....In the same conversation with me, you have said, that you wouldn't be interested if it wasn't for me, being so blind, and that you were going to make me see the truth.
So, I am your potential convert, am I ? That you have to keep on going to different posts all over my blog and writing your hatred all over my blog, in places that have absolutely nothing to do with Jews.
So, when I ignore what you write, you go to your own blog and write stuff about me? What is this, Sheltercrow? What is this really about. You post on yet another one of my posts, that my husband is a "dick"....
It is starting to look very much like a personal attack on me....."So like I said above, before you go and say, for me to....
" get over myself....." explain to me why this all looks like a personal campaign against me.....?
May I also remind you, Mr. Sheltercrow:
No one has a gun to your head forcing you to read my blogs!.....let alone comment on them.
If this is not your "cup of tea", then go to someone else's blog. Or to your own...
Thank you, Dee.
I am personally against all racist remarks, and stereotyping I really doubt that. Few are free of racism and sterotyping. It is a human trait. Anyone who makes such a claim is obviously in self denial. That said, the real trick is to try to overcome ones racist tendencies. It is no better to judge a whole group by the actions of one person than it is to judge one person by the actions of most of that group. By that I mean, Hollywood tries to convince us that we should ignore all illegal immigrants by showing us individual cases. One drop of water is not bad. Millions of drops rushing over the dam can be bad.
