What percentage of Americans do you think are racists, bigots, homophobic and Islamophobic?

...

VoR???

 

Please everyone, keep this one professional.

What percentage are all of those things or at least one of them?

I'll just say higher than we would like to admit and leave it at that.

I am going to go with too many.

Define each term.

Agreed. So vague and often mis-used.

I am going with at least 30% of Americans fall under at least one of those categories.

 

I know we are on the edge here and hope we can keep the discussion focused

I think you're naive if you think it's that low...I say double that.

I don't doubt you a bit that's why I said at least 30%. I agree with you that it is very likely much higher.

 

The follow-up question is ... how do we overcome these issues? Will it only happen with time?

67%

At least double it, if we are just asking what percent are at least one of them I'd say the number is crazy high...75%+ wouldn't surprise me.

Agreed. Right now the largest % IMO is Islamophobia...

I'm going to say there are probably more than I think but probably less than minorities think.
