[QUOTE="LuisCarlos17f, post: 8078439, member: 6802378"] I know what is to suffer intolerance, and not racism but school bulling and the scars are still on my soul. Once I was so furious what literally I became blind by the rage. I suffered a hit with a glass object and I didn't remember it, and neither felt the pain ever, I have got still the scar. I won the trial. I know what is to be so furious to become crazy, literally, for a minute. It was as closing the eyes and all happening in fast motion. I couln't think, only reflex actions. Thas was truely transient madness. Maybe I don't notice about possible predjudices, but not worse than a little boy for the first day in the kindergarten/playschool, but nothing we can't fix with a piece of good diplomacy and other social skills. We agree racism is wrong, but my opinion is if the other suspects there are attempts to manipulate emotionally through feelings of guilt and shame then it's a bad strategy. The right strategy should be to defend the respect for the human dignity. Without this all rebels against authority may become the new tyrants, it will be "our cousin, my brother and me against the world, my brother and me against our cousin, me against my brother". In Rwanda hutus and tutsis killed each other not for the skin color, but the face traits what identifie them as members of the other tribe. What would be your opinion if a wave of riots started in North-Ireland because a British cop killed an Irish? Or in Germany because a Spanish inmigrant was killed by the police when he was being arrested. Sometimes I propose an exercecise in imagination to test our possible predjudices, the sames actions but done by members of other countries or communities. Would be our opinion about the same facts but with different people, or would be show a double standar? * In Japan there is still discrimination against the members of the caste [URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Burakumin']burakamun[/URL] and in China [URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uyghurs']Uyghurs[/URL] don't enjoy total tolerance, but the own goverment dare to demolish mosques.
