i'm sorry shh! but i disagree with you here.

remember: anger begets anger!

having hatred and anger toward these people, only fuels them MORE!

i remember an open racist (who i happened to be assigned to as a roomate when i lived in the dorms as a freshman), he told me his views. He clearly didn't like me.

What did I do? I became an ear. I became a friend. I don't know where he is now, or what he is doing. But imagine that - i made a friend out of someone who wouldn't even talk to me!

He told me his views were that way, because he wanted to feel accepted by his friends and family...

i guess i'm just a lost person myself!

but i do feel that's the best way to approach a racist.
