1215461 2011-07-07 22:35:00 When you watch reality TV like Police 10 7 or watch the New Zealanders being stopped at the Australian border on Border control. See them around West Auckland smoking in the car with unrestrained kids its hard not to be racist. prefect (6291)

Racism is nothing new - people (in general) have a fear of the unknown or of something that is different to what they're used to. This can probably be attributed to our caveman/tribal ancestry, when "new" or "different" may have been life-threatening, and so got the adrenaline flowing and fight-or-flight kicked in.

1215468 2011-07-10 23:08:00 There was one point that was overlooked, that detracts from the article's relevance.

We know as fact that only the White races can be guilty of racism,

Just as

Only men can be guilty of sexism ( Homosexuals excluded)

Just as

Only Christians can be guilty of religious intolerance.
