This poster may have many reasons to hate these people, he chooses to use a term that is derogatory towards them..

The truth is we are all racist and bigots to one point or another, we experience life and through those experiences and knowledge we come to conclusions.

not all Arabic people stone and kill women but we as a western society since it is different to ours have determined that our way of treating women is better, thus the media claims and drives into the consciousness of the public that if you are not outraged by this behavior or culture you are "ignorant".. which of coarse proves that they are bigots..

the meaning of the word bigot = A bigot is a person who is intolerant of or takes offense to the opinions, lifestyles or identities differing from his or her own, and bigotry is the corresponding attitude or mindset. Bigot is often used as a pejorative term to describe a person who is obstinately devoted to prejudices, especially when these views are either challenged, or proven to be false or not universally applicable or acceptable.
very well said.....


on a side note..
i think that everybody is racist to some degree or level. everybody is a bigot to some degree or level.. if you realize it or not people unrelate themselves from what they don't know or understand. or maybe just what they don't believe in..
