>Ok - then we strongly disagree with one another. Based on my experience with the handful of people I've met that believe as you do I don't think that any statistics or evidence will sway your mind-set - so I guess we should just drop it now before it turns into a long pointless argument.


Well, all I can say to that is, I hear the other side everyday. Every where you turn it's the same message. Most the news shows, tv shows, magazines, news papers, our schools.....etc.....it's always the same message of grievance.... Racists, homophobe, sexist, xenophobe, someone is too rich, why am I not making as much money as him?......etc....

You may have only spoken to just handful of people "like me". But I hear your side everyday about this. And lot of it is crap.. or at least vastly exaggerated.

>>That's not to say that there isn't any racist...on both side. Racists come in all color, size, gender and creed.
>>There are racists in America. But America is not a racist nation. America, by far is the most tolerant nation in the world.
