It's the difference between dissing individuals (which is a part of life) and dissing categories, tarring all the individuals in that category with the same brush. If you do not see how that is wrong, somewhere a baby unicorn is having its eyelids taped open and being forced to watch Bob Saget's entire videography. cn

I was lucky. I grew up with a Teamster for a dad.
He played softball, chartered boats to go fishing, and all kinds of stuff with his friends from work, so I grew up realizing that not all people from a group ie: Black, Mexican, Polish, Cuban, whatever, are the same. YES, there are some from EVERY group that make that group look bad, and for people that can't differentiate those persons from a group.......... Well, then it's their loss.
I have noticed however, there is a big difference in people from coast to coast, all people, not just one group singled out.

As a youngster, I formulated the hypothesis that the statistical spread of individuals within any category is greater than the spread of the centers of those groups of humans. (Born geek! yow) Forty-some years in, i have not found reason to change that hypothesis.
I too count myself very lucky to have had parents who were wonderfully free of bigotry. And let me tell you, Central Europeans (note how I don't distill that!) have something of a legendary capacity for bigotry. cn
