Paraphrasing the good bits: Without scrutiny many of us still place one group usually our own ahead of another. The defining issues are power and opportunity, some have the power to inpose those prejudices whilst others are impotent Less. There is no monopoly of virtue just humans of many descriptions.

Well, I'm not sure, I keep re-reading your post,
In plain English, what on Earth do you mean?
I found a person I considered my friend, hidden behind cloth, she had to tell me who she was, I don't want to be told, I want to see the person so that I can smile as I recognise a friend.
In the news we've had some obsessive that came over to the Country and randomly killed, Only reason? he thought himself white and superior, I don't want that to happen to anyone, how though can I protect someone if I had to, when they are covered in cloth and I don't recognise them?
I want my friends to be as trusting of me as I am of them, anyone covered has something to hide, unfortunatly, I'm most reluctant to defend Zorro, he/she can look after themselves.
