Still, the amount of actually racist people is definitely dwindling, so in a couple generations, our grandkids won't be raised in a world where people think that mixed races is wrong.
What will our grandkids' kids think of us? What do you think of people from the early 1900's?
This same forum topic in the early 1900's would be a wildly different conversation.
We still have people thinking that the world is 6000 years old, despite us knowing that it is well older than that (like, at least 7000)

My neighbors don't believe in evolution. Their reasoning is:
"If we came from monkeys, why can't they turn into humans, and why can't we turn into them."
*sigh*
Oh, and Interracial relations don't bother me.

I've got a redheaded cousin in Arkansas that her entire town calls devil because she's a redhead. They spraypaint the outside of her house, rock windows and hold prayers to cleanse the house. It's gotten so bad she's had to call the cops several times. The cops tell her to get a gun.

They're racist though, against all races

To me being equally racist against all races (as long as you include your own) is functionally the same as not being racist. I mean I fucking hate errybody including fellow white people (or "fellow Jews", depending on your perspective). That's just plain old misanthropy.

Can you even all it racist if you hate everyone? I don't mean to echo your point, but hating everyone isn't racist. And I'm kind of in the dame boat. I mostly hate stupid/willfully ignorant people. Are stupids a race?

I just realized that even though I often do a double-take when I see an interracial couple, I don't think of white+asian couples as interracial. Weird. I am white and I think a lot of white people have the same mentality as me about this, or perhaps it's just the ones I grew up around? But yeah. Maybe it comes from being immersed in weeaboo culture from middle school onward, but to me "asian girlfriend" is about half as exotic as "redheaded girlfriend", even though my last name is Scottish.

Is, uh, is it a black town? A latino town? An... amish town?

Seriously confused here, like to the extent that even if it's not a white town I'm assuming either you or she is exaggerating this for effect, and if it is a white town I think you're getting modern day reality confused with the Scarlet Letter novels

Nah screw you dude, the world is over 9000 years old.

Yep the cops told her they can't be coming out there all the time and if they can't make it out there she should have a gun to protect herself. Her mom is a redhead in Arkansas too, but I'm not sure if she gets the same threats. Redhead... the new black in the south.

Weird... I never knew redheads were persecuted. I mean, sure they have no souls, but they're generally very nice (joking of course... please don't ban me).

I don't get how some people can get so fired up over something so silly. Although, now that I think about it, my dad was made fun of for having red hair, and he was more a strawberry blond. His hair is white now, but, yea... people are messed up.

Alot ginger kids seem to become annoying at some point if they get tired of being made fun for their hair color.
When I was like 7 years old, I used to get annoyed when someone called me a blonde.

Dunno why, though I still hate my hair at times and I have wanted to dye it once but my parents prevented and whined how people with blonde hair is a minority.

@Shortstar
..what. Does that town's population consist of retards that are the descendants of crazy catholics whose favorite pastime included witch-hunt?
Your cousin should move out.

Teasing someone for their appearance is pretty different from spraypainting their house and burning crosses in their yard and shit.

I mean, I presume it's different. Maybe they're friends who do that kind of stuff as practical jokes. Or coworkers or something who don't like her for other reasons, and think it's funny to do stuff like that to her.
This.

It's true. Everyone's a bit racist but that doesn't mean we're gonna do something extreme to the people about it.

OFF TOPIC: Way to make your self sound like a man whore.

ON TOPIC: Who cares who loves who? Let people live their own lives, enough said.
