we should talk about this, do we have the right to racist. no... it is one thing to have preconceptions but when they border on racism it is not alright. As humans we always make assumptions about a lot of things simply because we don't have the time to verify the behaviour of everybody but you should use that to judge, give everyone a chance to show themselves, all humans are unique and our culture is only a part of who we are. If you strip away everything we basically have all the same feelings and thoughts except for the odd person. Racism shouldn't be tolerated... we should advance as a species not only technologically but also socially.. racism is something of the past.. note: racism didn't exist until a few centuries ago in europe, before that china had racist views and look where it got them, they isolated themselves and fell behind and became weak. Racist isolation makes you weaker, go out and engage the world, we are humans and together we can do great things. Be kind to your fellow humans.
