A lot of black people would agree with you about all three points.

To have these sort of "pet peeves" about races do not make you a racist. Think of it this way: would you hate a white version of the ying yang twins?

It means that Massachusetts is so full of racists that it's not like you can help it.

I live in Mississippi and I see it all the time here but I think it is everywhere, for example:

You are the passenger in a car, and someone in another car does something stupid that almost causes an accident, The driver yells.........

In Mississippi(Where I now Live)
"F'ing N-word"

In Dallas,TX (Where I use to Live)
F'ing Mexicans"

So what do you say when you are behind the wheel...

I normally say something like "Stupid F'ing C-unt" or something along those lines.

It's probably more cultural than racial. Most people tend to favor or exaggerate how good their race or ethnic or social group's way of doing things is even if it doesn't really deserve it, and likewise not warm up to the way other people do things all that easily. It's just human nature, and whether you're dumb or smart, a vicious racist or a really swell guy, that will still be the norm. There's nothing wrong with it really, as long as you don't mistake personal preference or bias with any kind of unassailable absolute standard.
