Do you think this country is racist? why or why not?

Oh, bullshit. There probably are more black criminals than white ones, but IMO this is due to the fact that many black people live in poor, urban communities where crime is both a fact of life and one of the easier ways to make money. However, that still wouldn't account for almost half the prisoners on death row being black, like lil b said.

But anyways... The police and justice system here are so racist it's ridiculous. Ever heard of Rodney King or Mumia Abu-Jamal?

The justice system seems to be more offended when a white person dies by a black person than other way around.

Black person is more likely to be persecuted and is more likely to be put to death than a white person who has commited the same crime.

But as Afro Cheese already said, its not necesseraly limited to America only.

Yes.

NO!

sorry i just felt it was necessary to end the stupid echo.

the world is racist. what kind of question is that?

Black people are also more likely to be given bullshit trials, as was the case with Mumia.

White people are also more likely to get charged with racist crimes then blacks.

the USA seems a little racist to me. i dont want to mess with anybodys opinion but this is what i think. i mean where i live i see all the black people hanging out with black people, all the mexicans hanging out with Mexicans, all the asians hanging out with asians, and all the americans hanging out with americans. this is what i see. i mean....sure somtimes groups get mixed. but i see each race hanging out with the same race where ever i go. i am not a racist but what do you think?

america IS racist like a motherf*cker. what you described, though, is natural. i would rather hang out with somebody i can relate to in terms of culture, religion and upbringing rather than somebody who doesn't have an idea at all. it eliminates the whole extensive explanation why i eat what i eat, believe what i believe or do the things that i do.

Oh of course, minority of your population makes almost half of people on death row...but OH NO its not racist!

Hell, let's all be racist then.

(Just for the sake of argument...)

I'm an equal opportunity racist, meaning I hate everyone, regaurdless of race.

That said, racism is not a part of any country in particular, but the world in general.

Around here it is mostly black on white racism.

If by 'racist' you mean 'putting the felons where they belong', then YES, America is racist.

Only one of the three was given the death sentance, but the other two are still interesting.

I don't know about my country, I am some what.But then again I get sick when I see gay guys grabing one another and making out in public.

😐

One of my friends is going back to her home country because people are being so racist and absolute d!ckheads. I havent seen it happen to her, but if i did i'd kick their @sses...

But anyway, my friends at school are a mix of Sri lankan, filipino, australian, turkish, chinese and chilean peeps. So where i am racism is not as bad as other places around.

I dont understand why people are racist, i mean, everybody's different, so deal with it. There is no need to be hatin somebody with a different kind of look and/or culture.
