discrimination



My question for those of you defining discrimination..... do you think
that we have to like everybody.  Do you honestly think this world is
a happy place were we get along with everybody and like everyone
always?  If so come back to reality for just a bit.  Yes everyone has
people they don't like.  And under your definition, it is because the
discrimiate.  I just don't by that.  It is because we don't like what
they stand for, think they are personally annoying, or sometimes it
is something we can't explain, or maybe they hurt us in some way.  BUT,
what I think you are leaving out in your discussion of discrimination is
that what is COMMONLY thought of as discrimination is the dictionary definition
quoted in an earlier posting, plus the thought of that judgement being
toward a group of people as a whole, not on an individualistic level.
