For anyone who seriously suggests that would be a "good idea," you have your morals all ****ed up.

As bad as racism is (and it is), murder is simply worse.

[QUOTE="thepwninator"]Deciding to kill all racist people is much the same as deciding to kill all religious people. You may not like their beliefs, but they have the right to formulate their opinions as much as you do.TBoogy

Decent point. OK, if I had a button to kill all racist people who ACTED on their hatred, I would press it. If they are just a closet racist that did nothing about it, fine.

Then you would far more immoral than any racist ever was

That's going to kill a whole lot of people. I'd say you'd probably kill off more than 3/4 of the people on the planet. Whether one was being racist overtly or through ignorance and naivete most everyone has had a racist thought more than once in their life even if they think it's not.

It's okay to have a racist thoughts at least once in your life. But it's a whole different thing when you join the KKK and make it your life's ideology.

That's just selective racism. The individual who joins a racist organization is just more honest and overt with their racist beliefs. The person who thinks having racist thoughts once in awhile and doesn't see it as wrong are just in the closet and afraid of what others may think of them if they become open with their thoughts.

As long as they don't act on their racists feelings there's really nothing bad about it.

Nope, because then a lot of children would needlessly die. Ever notice most, I'd estimate around 98% of all children would choose a game character the same colour and gender as them? In essence that would be supremacy, ergo a form of racism.

I dont think so. Not with me adding "if they acted on it" anyway.

Because then I am punishing a bad cop who shoots a black guy in the back and plants a gun on him, for example.

If killing him for actingout his racismis immoral, then we as a country are immoral for killing death row inmates.

The OP said people who were acting upon it and joining thig's like the KKK, if you have racist thoughts but just keep them inside then you wouldn't go, that would probably be a much smaller amount.

I've been deemed racist by mods on here, so no. The term "racist" has become far too easy to stick on someone, you'd end up killing people who are just uneducated in that area of knowledge.

To you, maybe. But its a person's right to as illogical as they like. Should we get rid of religion while we are at it? Stupid is subjective but it is certainly illogical.

I don't agree that people have a right to be racist. People have taken rights much too far. I shouldn't have the right to believe that racism is right because it makes our society worse. And yes, I'd get of religion too while I'm at it. And I'd get rid of everything else that sets us apart from one another because our differences are what cause us to fight. And yeah, I love destroying people in TF2. :D

Racism is actually very logical. Racism is stereotyping a negative image to an entire race based off previous experience. Everyone has this in one field or another.

No! Racism is not something that would disappear if we killed all racist people, it is actually quite a natural behavior. We can never completely eliminate racism, but we can certainly learn to become more accepting of others. Killing people just seems senseless.

I'll try to explain this in a bit more detail for you. Racism is stereotyping. Stereotyping is essential for humans to cope and manage in any way shape or form in this world. Under a different name it's called a "schema", a package of information you draw upon when the situation arises so you have a base to go off from. If you walked up to a crocodile your immediate reaction is to get away from it because it is (a) aggressive and (b) capable to kill you. If you walked up to a crocodile and analysed it from the bottom up you would be missing a limb by tea time. Somewhere along the line of developing a schema on a certain race, a racist is either misinformed or has had a very bad experience. Take a look here. If all my experiences of a certain race are negative, my view when I conjure up the thought of that race will be negative. That to me isn't racism, as racism should carry certain malicious intent. Most people who are called "racist" are simply uneducated in that area. If we were to analyse and treat each area of knowledge in our lifes as brand new, independent information, our species as a whole would grind to a halt. That is why it is logical. It doesn't make it right, but just because YOU can't think outside of "racism is wrong" doesn't make it illogical.

Racism is logical to those who are racist. As I've said numerous times, racism is very closely linked to a lack of exposure to people of other races, and thus, to a lack of understanding. The natural human response to what one does not understand is fear. That is, ultimately, the root of all racism: fear of the unknown.

There is no fundamental divide between racists and non-racists; they are cut from the same cloth, only with different life experiences. The solution to racism is education and inclusion, not to kill the racists (as if there is a "racism gene" that can be eradicated).

As far as I'm concerned a huge portion of a person's personality is a product of their environment, so I'd perceive that as a disturbingly self-righteous thing to do considering that basically the reason that I'm not like them is that I didn't have the life they did.

Also, there are too many factors which make this question rather vague anyway: Are we talking about people who actively engage in violence, or merely people who put on public displays of their ignorance and foolishness? Are we talking about kids who are involved because their parents are? I could probably come up with a hundred more...

Furthermore, that would have tons of unpredictable consequences. As a simple and direct example, what about all of them who were driving a vehicle at the time I pushed the button?

I dont think so. Not with me adding "if they acted on it" anyway.

Because then I am punishing a bad cop who shoots a black guy in the back and plants a gun on him, for example.

If killing him for actingout his racismis immoral, then we as a country are immoral for killing death row inmates.

TBoogy

What if a racist just beats a asian guy because he hates his skin colour? What if a black girl is called "monkey" by all the white people on the street? There are hundreds of ways to "act racists" that do not require killing the object of your hate and thus do not deserve to be punished by death

Hm,national socialists,no,why?

Becuase,simply killing them (National Socialists)will not sufice,we need to torture their as-s.

KKK,not really,they are a bunch of rednecks who are incredibly stupid,let them live in ignorance.

But,wouldnt killing them,based on their ideology,make us the same as them?

They killed based on ethnics and skin color...

But,bottom line,we would be just as bad...

We might have different motives,we might think we are making the world a better place,but then again,the KKK and nazis thought the same thing when they killed,they thought they were making the world a better place,as ****ed up as it sounds,its true...

Should we kill them all?????

I say, **** it,lets do it ;)

I would rather have a button that when pushed it would move a black or other minority family right nextdoor to their homes.
