Of us Jews? Do you hate us still?

seems outdated ? One could hate some traces of character in Jews , but that would be generalization. The same could be asked about other groups - nations. Wonder what made you ask such question ?

@Khenpal1: I'm not Jewish, but having a life long sentence of brown skin has made me wary of other shades of people. You get derided and baited all through junior high and high school. You apply for jobs and never hear back. You walk in a store and the manager takes one look, squints his eyes thinking "another thieving red skin" and walks around the store 2 steps behind you till you leave. Walk into a bar and someone is going to yell out, "Get out of here you f**k'n warhoop, you are not welcome here". I rest my case here, I know what it's like to be looked down on even though your people have suffered genocide from those same white colored hands. Not all of any people are bad, but I know from what quarter to expect unwarranted hate. I expect the author of this question feels the same as I when a beat up 4 wheel drive pick up with a big American flag and a trump sticker on the back goes by with a scowling red neck behind the steering wheel flipping you the finger and thinking to himself "America is for whites only". These kind of people aren't going away. It's encouraging to hear from those of you who don't hate people just because of their heritage.

@dannys925: You right in many ways , but I would get similar treatment in country like India or China. What could be even worse is you own race treat you as worst enemies like they do in India. What you are describing is racial-tribal mentality in USA prevalent in our times.

Just want to point out that it is a real thing, even if neither of us wants it to be here. I ready to let the past go, not that hard as my blood is 3/4 white, however looking very much the 1/4 native American that I am, I know to expect expressions of prejudice to be thrown at me.
Like Ezbit is saying, we know what is said behind our backs can be quite different than what is said to our faces. I want to make America great, but you can't build great on top of hate.
