Most people dislike anyone that refuses to work, takes advantage of government aid, is loud and rude, etc. It's just coincidental that many "black" people fit this demeanor. It's not racist to dislike someone that fits the above description. If they are white, you can hate. If they are a minority of any sort, you are a racist. I do not understand this. I do not think there are many actual racists who hate someone because of their skin color. Rather, they hate a certain type of person and if that correlates with a certain skin color, they are labeled a certain way. If someone hates a person simply because they are a certain color though and not because of character, then they are indeed a bad person.
