My Opinion on Racism and Prejudice

Now, we have to make some things clear about this topic, racism isn't making fun of someone for their race, or by calling them Cracker, the "n word," or whatever else, that's prejudice. Racism is prosecuting someone for their race, religion, or sex. This has become another one of those topics in our school and on the bus. I am appalled at both, and it is wrong to do either. I have been made fun of, because I am Buddhist and Christan. I really also hope you know, that you can be sued, sent to jail, and lose your job for being racist or prejudice. There are, however a few flaws in the legal system when it comes to this subject. For example...

When a white person targets targets a black person, it's racism. When a black person targets a white person, it isn't. An example of this is state fair last year. A mob of African-Americans started to attack every white person it state fair park, and that's not a hate crime? I don't think so. Your sentence for murder, breaking into a car, or whatever else shouldn't be based on the color of the person the crime was committed against. That's a even a form of segregation itself, but the U.S. courts are too stupid to realize this. I hope this post has given you a lot to think about.
