This means realizing that when deciding which measures are appropriate to, say, protecting myself from foreign terrorists, or break-ins in a certain neighbourhood, or passing judgement in court, I would NOT be guaranteed by my “good nature” to only gather the facts and weigh them evenly and fairly. We don’t HAVE a good nature, we have only the nature that nature gave us – which is full of things appropriate for surving in the jungle, and far less so for things appropriate to being a good person.
This is just the sad truth, and mostly, what we see in these numbers is this sad truth in practice. Because people don’t admit that they have prejudices, they don’t try to compensate for them either. There may be SOME conscious attitudes mixed into it – real racism – but it’s not (from this survey) possible to say how much.

Dunno if someone already pointed this out (I’m so not combing through 300+ replies) but for everyone saying this is “preference” not “racism” what would happen to that argument in any other context? No I won’t hire you because I “prefer” whites. Sorry, I won’t let you into my neighborhood, I “prefer” whites.

Ok my one and only question is… Does this change anyone’s point of view?? I would have to say probably not. People prefer whatever they want and you really cannot call that racist. Some guys and girls prefer not to go outside thier race even thought they could be missing a wonderful opportunity. Its 2009 but thinking is still in the 1950’s.
