A lot of serious things are said in "jest", Racisim in everyday life.

[Joe Tall]

Recently I just head the following...

<2+2er> he meant gold stars
<2+2er> see, the nazis had flair that they made the jews wear...

I understand this behavior is usually passed down from generation to generation. However, what can we do to stop it?

Why do people say such things?
Are their lives that miserable that they have to look down and mock people of other sects and creeds to make themselves feel better?

Why does the lack of education or intelligence still shine through in this century in statements like this?

I have never in my 33 years understood racism and never will.
