If everyone on earth was of color who would we hate? In Namibia my black Commanche friends of the Damara tribe hate the other tribes to the north and south of them. When I ask them if they hate me cause I'm white they say no,you don't act like a white man.Corse I am armed and that might be the prudent reply. I think it is more of a tribal thing than color of one's hide. The Souix thought they were better than the other Indians, the Commanche hated everybody yet they were all the same skin color. In todays world only white people are racist.

People have been hating other people, for one reason or another, since time began! If I don't like you, I promise, it has nothing to do with the color of your skin.

Racism keeps "hating cultures" busy until they could eliminate everyone, but their own race. Once that happened, they would continue to declare war on their own kind until they were destroyed. This is true of all tribal cultures, it happened in the American Indian culture and is rampant right now with the Muslims.
If all the infidels were eliminated, the Muslims would only turn on themselves and kill one another, they can't live in harmony as it is. It is very tribal and lacks any thread of real humanity...

The black folks I know deal with prejudice inside the black community according to the lightness of their skin. Lighter skin--especially on women--is seen as more desirable than darker skin.

If a person acts like a decent human being and doesn't carry a huge chip on their shoulder, they will soon find out that the color of their skin didn't mean so much after all....

Agreed, a [bleep] is a [bleep] regardless of color, race, religion etc.

30-06 people would hate 270 people.
45-70 shooters would hate everyone equally.

I've just never understood hate. It's an active emotion and I have not the time nor desire to put effort into it.

Really? Can't imagine what you would be like if you tried.

I don't hate, not in me. I can disagree with you adamantly on many things but that doesn't mean I wouldn't help if your car was broken down or have a beer with a guy.
I don't even dislike many if any folks, I just don't like a bunch.
Things should/need to be said, but they ain't carried around in my pocket afterwards.

J/K! Plinker you are absolutely correct. The 45-70 people are justified in hating every one else after all who is more blend then thos who refuse to see the natural superiority of the 45-70. Jim

The black folks I know deal with prejudice inside the black community according to the lightness of their skin. Lighter skin--especially on women--is seen as more desirable than darker skin. blacks are extremely prejudiced on skin tone....the high class creole blacks in New Orleans, really descendants of mulattos, don't let their children marry anyone darker than a grocery bag....they call it the bag test....lest they have a coal black baby and embarrass the family by reminding them they are related to the the black blacks who have no cream in their coffee. which is really funny when you consider that it was the light skinned creoles who scream the loudest about white prejudice....every time I see Mark Morial on the national news playing all butthurt Negro, I have to laugh. His father went to Tulane law school as a white guy.....all the Morials have been what the creoles call "passe blancs" for generations.

If a person acts like a decent human being and doesn't carry a huge chip on their shoulder, they will soon find out that the color of their skin didn't mean so much after all.... I was a plant supervisor for a pork facility and we had about every color under the sun working there. After a while you didn't even notice the color of someones skin, if you treated any of these people with respect they couldn't have been any nicer to you. Problem with so many blacks & Indians is they don't even know their own history. A majority of the blacks sold into slavery were sold by their fellow tribes and one Indian population would force out the next tribe. White man didn't do anything different than what their own people did to them, just on a grander scale.

I only dislike those who are not good citizens. Color is a moot point for me.
