    For example most people will say they are not racist but when it comes to their kids mixing etc thats a big no for most people etc.

    I mean things that dont make any sense at all DOES NOT EXIST in large numbers but Racism is common and does exist in large numbers even though most people wont say it.

    I think it exists because of the big differences in such areas as crime rates, test scores, differences in how we look and parents want kids that look like themselves and so do their grandparents etc.

    My opinion on this.
    Your comment (bolded) above is what doesn't make sense. Racism isn't a perceived difference in races or ethnicities. It's acting on these perceived differences in irrational and unjustifiable ways. One hundred years ago, many ethnic groups (African-Americans, Hispanics, Jews, Irish, Italians, Asians) were treated unfairly because of racism. Did that make sense? Isn't life better in America now that Americans accept ALL ethnic groups and accept that no ethnic group is better or lesser than others?
    Racism was an unfortunate result of xenophobia, the inherited behavior to reject anybody who doesn't look or act like you. It's a behavior that our early ancestors used to survive. But, in the last 100 years, because of technological advances, humanity has become more heterogenous throughout the world. But, for some, our behavioral instincts still supersedes logic and tolerance. Think of what America looked like 100 years ago. It was basically a white man's world. Women couldn't vote. African-Americans were segregated in society. Fifty years ago, thanks to many civil rights laws, segregation gradually dissipated. And look at the results. We see African-Americans, Hispanics, Asians as doctors, engineers, scientists, Presidents. They have proven that they can do anything if given a fair chance and opportunity. This makes America stronger and a more benevolent and altruistic society. America stands for a place where All Are Created Equal and all Americans are treated fairly and with compassion and tolerance. Racism is just, plain un-American. There's no other way to say it.
    Republican Congressman Ken Buck:
    “We’re at a time in American politics, that I am not going to lie on behalf of my presidential candidate, on behalf of my party. And I’m very sad that others in my party have taken the position that, as long as we get the White House, it doesn’t really matter what we say,”

    Thus we have more highly evolved people co-existing with humans of more retarded development.

    This forum provides a decent social laboratory in itself.
    I can point out to you several evolutionary failures amongst its membership whom I'm happy to classify as a sub-species .
    I don't really need to though- as they are just as evident to you, I'm sure.
    Yeah, I can do that as well.

    I hereby classify you as a sub-species. Have a good day.

    HAHAHA. Have you ever told the truth in your miserable life?. Of course SOME BLACKS become engineers and scientists just like some people are 7 feet tall. But very very few. 95% of american black adults are on welfare or have a useless job they got thru affirmative action.
    Reckless drivers are a bigger threat to you than all other criminals put together!

    THE BIG LIE - Blacks and whites are different physically but identical mentally!

    There is no way 81 million americans voted for a man they know is a child molester w dementia. Impeach Joe the Pedophile Vegetable (JPV)

    Many posters in this thread apparently do not understand what is meant by the biological term sub species. Sub species does not in any way denote inferiority. It is simply a further classification.

    In*biological classification, the term*subspecies*refers to a unity of populations of a*species*living in a subdivision of the species’s global range and varies from other populations of the same species by*morphological*characteristics.
    Sub species certainly can and do interbreed in nature, because they are the same species.

    You're missing about 90% of the conversation, 60,000 (or 200,000, depending on which point one uses for reference) years of adaption, science and LOGIC. Why am I not surprised? Your ignorance of even positing the question proves you will NEVER understand it.

    That's a nice logical fallacy you've got there.

    TDAK is a racist moron. TDAK supports Fox and the current Republican party. Therefore anyone who supports Fox and the current Republican party is a racist moron...

    Do you see how dumb that is?

    Racism is taught at home . And enforced by some groups and environments. It is not how we are born.
