How become a racist?
I was walk to the door and I see black man
come to the post office so I hold the door for him
and what he did?
he give me dirty look and he change direction
to the second door of the post office
I was try to be nice and courteous
and look what I got...
now next time I see a black I should hold the door for him or her
with the risk to feel like an idiot?
Answer:
You were nice and he's a jerk! I hold doors for people and if they get upset, THAT'S THEIR PROBLEM!
Don't stop being nice. This world needs people like you!
To answer your original question: I would say become a racist by living in my neighborhood and having a bunch of black people steal stuff out of your garage.. its working alright for me so far.
Sounds to me like you are an illegal. If you are, then I wouldn't complain. Racism - it is learned in the home. One is not born with such attitudes.
just be courteous and don't become a racist.
To become a racist of situations like this is stupid. First of all, EVERY race has stereotypes, but there are lots of people that are the exception to these sterotypes.
So if a Black man did it to you, it doesn't mean all blacks will do it to you. Would you have thought the same about a white man if he did it to you? You can't nail it down to a race when someone does it to you from that race.
If you had held the door shut like that its no wonder he went to the other door... Seems pretty racist to me...
.
Yes, kill people with your kindness .but if you are illegal would you please speak English and learn the American way become a citizen the lawful way? We would all appreciate it ..
If someone giving you a dirty look makes you feel like you're becoming a racist, then you're well on your way...it will probably take only one more petty incident before you're a full blown Klan member.
Quit being a baby.
Who cares? Bottom line, just be a nice person to make yourself feel good. Eff the hate.
Sad incident but you shouldn't change your manners just because you had one bad experience. Honestly, racism is an ignorant act that some choose to partake in. It not only shows how immature one is but also how one cant accept another race because of their skin color. Why cant we get to know someone before judging them? Please continue with your common courtesy and don't let one incident sway your attitude.
Are you 6? 7 maybe? Or did you drop out of school in 4th grade? Your spelling and grammar are atrocious! Maybe he just did not want a moron opening the door for him? Maybe he thought stupid would rub off on him?
First, tax everyone to give them everything they demand, then when they keep demanding more, tax everyone more to give them that too.
Then when they still spend everything they have on drugs and guns, refuse education and live in ghettos, feel superior to them, pat yourself on the back and say "I did MY part to help, they are just inferior. I'm not racist!"
WHy is this in the immigration section. Yes, I know , this area contains the most racist of all sites in Y!A. DOn't judge a race by an individual. THis is how it gets started. He might of plame your race because one Caucasian mistreated him. 2 wrongs don't make a right. It's only a minor thing to be snubbed like that.
Edit: I find it interesting that some peoples response here in preventing you from becoming a jerk is to be a jerk. I find more hate coming from some of the answers than coming from the question.
Rude people are a way of life. Get over it and feel good about yourself that you are not one of them. No need to feel like an idiot; feel good about yourself that you do not have those rude traits.
I think you are a racist, but do not realize it.
Black people are not the only ones who will give you dirty looks, you will get dirty looks from all races...that particular man may have been having a bad day..you never know why people do the things they do, but to have it in your head that he did it because of a race issue is exactly why we are still fighting racism today! Think about it.
Next time don't hold the door ,fvk em
You are not alone out there and what has happened. Our government and group leaders promote Racism. It keeps them from dealing with and solving real problems. It also makes for good press.
On the good side you and I are treated as a individual, independed thinkers they on the other hand are treated as group or packs thinking and action the same way and pandered to as a group or pack. Sad.
Next time you do that think about that and smile. I do all the time. They are the group idiot not you.
Very obvious by your question and comments that you are.
Did you stop and think maybe he was having a bad day or something?
Just respect yourself and others. No need to become a racist.
People are people.
He was probably just rude (had nothing to do with his race).
ARE YOU SURE he was BLACK!? A lot of LATINOS, PEEPS FROM INDIA, PEEPS FROM CUBA and EVEN ITALIANS look BLACK. I think, if he was a MEXICAN, HE might have had a bad experience with some BASHER; with someone who was ANTI-IMMIGRANT, anti AMNESTY.
It is possible that you caught him off guard... being so nice and he reacted before it registered that you were being nice. WE could speculate ANYTHING, but the main
thing that will stick in my mind is that YOU were nice, not that he was all the things I could speculate on. WE are NOT rewarded or punished for what someone else does. IF SOMEONE ELSE is a DOG, we shouldn't' t allow them to turn us into a dog. IT TAKES SO MUCH ENERGY TO HATE energy that is needed to cure ones own body and to prevent illnesses.
STAY AS YOU ARE...and look in the mirror; YOU WILL SEE A FACE THAT Y-O-U can love.

also,
ONE POSTER SAID: "To answer your original question: I would say become a racist by living in my neighborhood and having a bunch of black people steal stuff out of your garage.. its working alright for me so far"
WHEN I READ THIS, IMMEDIATELY I COULD SEE IN MY THIRD EYE, A PERSON WHO WAS UNHAPPY, not just about BLACKS stealing from him, but ABOUT SO MANY OTHER THINGS TOO. I SEE HIM shortening his life stressing over things and spending energy trying to get others to stress too. IMAGINE, if the criteria for racism is hating people who steal, even whites would be racist against whites, if that's possible, because who stole more than the ENRON peeps?? Who is still stealing more THEN HALIBURTON, CHENEY'S peeps? SURELY, he Can't BLAME Blacks for the lost of 1 BILLION DOLLARS the whitehouse say is missing...BLACKS never even heard of a billion dollars until we found out OPRAH was a billioniare..smiles SO YOU SEE, YOU don't wanna be like that poster; he is allowing some BLACK, probably kids, warp his mind.BE LIKE YOU!
Lastly, wouldn't it be better for him to get a camera so he can see WHO is really stealing his things so he can turn them into the police, IF HE IS SO POSITIVE THEY ARE BLACKS,he must have seen them do it, so he should give a description to the police.or a camera could surprise him as to WHO it really is.RIGHT? Right!
