Ignorance is not bliss....it's just ignorance

I swear I have a Hispanic gangs in my class!!!! So scary and I saw a Black guy and Hispanic guy fighting already this morning! There is no place that here bc Monterey and its surrounding cities are tooooo diverse. Gee I'm goin to be wearing a bullet proof vest to class, and stare at my feet!

Aside from the obvious grammar issues this comment has to be one of the most ignorant things I have read in a while from a so called educated person. Now I am trying to be optimistic and tell myself this person is not as much of a bigot as they sound, but it's hard to see that through the wordage. That this person deems a place "tooooo diverse" is certainly a red flag. Now I am not so naive to think that racism and discrimination are dead nor do I believe that in personal situations a person should censor themselves to make others comfortable. But I have to wonder what kind of a shoe box this person was raised in! Too be so young (because this person is under 25) and still hold such bold stereotypes is pretty appalling. To me it is obvious that despite the fisticuffs these people are trying to better themselves, after all they are taking college classes. I doubt this person even thought about that. I don't know, my mind is truly blown on this one.
