Class today

I just wanted to comment on something that was said in class today. It was said that high school kids that yell things out the window of their cars at other races are not racist. That they were just doing it because of their friends and to look cool. I disagree with this. True they may not do it while they are alone, but that does not make it any less wrong! There are many crimes in history that would not have occured if there wasn't a group mentality present. The fact remains that they were still crimes. High school kids are a product of their enviorment and their families. They should have to face cosequences for their actions. It is not okay to hurt others with words or in any way. They should learn while they are young so they don't grow up to be big racists jerks with the power to really hurt others with their ignorance. We were all in high school at one time or the other and not all of us did this I am sure. It is just wrong.
