Does People Posting About Color Bother You?

I know we live in an interesting time and culture now a days. There are many different nationalities, cultures, etc but to me that should never mean division or someone is better than another. To me God made us all in his image, so why have we in the US especially gone backwards in our thinking, and forgot about all the good things we have accomplished? Since the recent shootings in CA, TX etc all I keep on seeing is people posting why was this person who murdered not killed or thrown to the ground when caught? They keep on refering to it as a Color issue, and to me I would Love to say did it matter back on 911 what color you were as to who was saved? I am really getting tired of them acting like they are better, and should matter so much. Yes, God did create us all equal. No one is better than anyone else. Time to quit acting like you're owed and be a human and learn to be accepted and move on. I feel we as a nation have moved backwards in time again instead of forwards. No wonder we have the homeless, etc. No one wants to do anything anymore to better themselves. Many times I wonder will this ever get better, or is this just the way things are going to continue to be? ~~TINA~~

I have found out that Americans are very racists, even when they don´t mean it. Sometimes it is even funny, if you can protect yourself from it.

I love my countrymen but I also love diversity.People must remember that apart from ethnic race, we are part of a much grander race called HUMAN race. Personally, I don’t condone people posting about colour. I always post how I love being brown. And how I’m also yellow when I don’t get enough sun. As long as the content is respectful, educational, eye opening, and promotes diversity I welcome those post. But if it is attacking another person for reasons they shouldn’t be attacked for then I am definitely against it. Racial discrimination is a form of bullying. We should never allow it.

I say all people are equal no matter their color and besides we are all human and that makes us as one.

I don`t make a difference in people, I have friends of all colors. People have always fought each other, just read the bible, people were slaves back in those days as well. I am white and I am a slave to life, to make a living, for all colors and religions or lack of.

I do not look at the person's skin color. I look at the person's character around others is.

I have been discouraged to see these shootings being used to further agendas. Each one is tragic. This is not a competition on who should be more upset or offended. I am appalled at the lack of fundamental caring I have seen, especially in every aspect of social media.

I have never worried about race, or anything. In my book we are all human and that is that. I have met many that are just awesome all the way around no matter the race and I have also met ignorant people of different races. What makes them the way they are? Im not sure. I do know I dont have time for racist ignorance and will not be around people like that. Sure have seem to have gone back in some things thou you are right.

It's still their right to post their opinions and frustrations. Lets not the situation consume or bother us and just do what the best we can as humans.

I was a Military brat since my Dad was in the army. I had friends of all colors and did not care about what color they were. I liked them for who they were. A good friend.

The problem with this is that there is actually, nowadays, much MORE prejudice against white people than any other race. Think about it. We're all being called white supremacists, racists, xenophobes, homophobes, masogynists, and we're being accused of white privilege. Racism works both ways. I think a LOT of people forget that.
