no.
-
no, i just like to avoid all people i was brought up by a very paranoid father who indoctrinated me with the "everyone is out to get you" mentality
-
never.
-
No, I get along with 'em all
-
No. That would be stupid.
-
No... the only person I avoid is the crazy guy downtown that yells and screams at himself and anyone nearby. He frightens me. I don't avoid people because of their race, color, ethnicity, etc...
-
no.
-
For Pete's Sakes NO. I would never even think about that with any person (well if they had a gun or knife in their hands I would).
-
No never, just if I see someone I know that I'm not in the mood to talk to at that particular time, but never because of someone's ethnicity thats just silly.
-
Hells no.
-
Sometimes. White people wearing suits piss me off.
-
Yes, except I've done it to avoid the person - NOT because of the person's ethnicity, though.
-
Absolutely never. In fact, that thought would never even cross my mind. Anyone who does is disliked by me greatly.
-
No
-
Not because of their ethnicity.
-
Never have, nevel will.
-
Honestly yes, but just because I live in Cincinnati, which is a VERY racist city. I've been jumped a few times and it isn't fun. I'm not a racist, but I know that when I see a group of people walking towards me of a different race, I'm at least going to get shoved. Thats just how things are here and I wish it wasnt
-
No. Ethnicity doesn't rub off.
-
No! I would not even have thought to ask a question like this. Now to avoid a brawl, or a fire, or an accident, or construction sites, yes, of course. But if someone would 'deign' something of that ilk, then they would be miserable in elevators, at the mall, everywhere in life. That sort would need therapy, I would think. Edit: (As would the tormented trolls who downrate simply from spite and anger at ones stand and position.)
-
Of course not. Why would I do that? Now, if I owed that person money ... <chuckle>...
-
Not that I remember, but I wouldn't be surprised if my mom did and dragged me with her when I was little. :/
-
No. Why would I do that? ==================================== Support the return of the avatar: http://www.answerbag.com/q_view/111472

Never!!!! But I have crossed the street to avoid my boss, I was taking a sicky. Duh!
-
No, never! I saw an old Japanese man on the train jump up in disgust and walk away trying to make his feelings as visible as possible when he realised the young guy sitting next to him was Chinese, though. I was quite taken aback by that.
-
NO... well, not because of their ethnicity, but because I didn't like the person.
-
No. I'm not that type of guy who dosen't like people because of there ethnicity.
-
honestly i have ever since last june when i was mugged by a really tall black person. i dont always try to avoid them it just depends on where i am who i am with and if anyones around. i've just been really parnoid since then
-
No Never, unless you call my Irish alchoholic stepfather as a separate ethnicity. then yes i have when he has been drinking, Sober he is a lovely man
-
Not that I recall. I dont think I have ever done that.
-
Yes, I did, till a man of color noticed and said "I don't want you". It was like don't flatter yourself. I never did it again.
-
Never, but I have crossed the street to avoid an ex-boyfriend/stalker.
-
only if i had my family with me and that person/persons looked suspicious or looked like a gang banger or piece of trash,but only then would i do it,not just because of their race,only how they seem to me!
-
Never. I have to admit also that this question took me by surprise. Literally. I did a double take when I saw it. I don't find it offensive at all. I just have never really thought about this before, so it was something of a jolt.
-
I have never done that. The good Lord put us all on earth and made us all no matter our differences. If I was to do this I would not be a very good child of God or a good Christian to boot. I have no reason to avoid others no matter their race, religion, look, or smell. God loves us all no matter what and if someone greater than I can overlook all that someone as small as I can do the same.
-
Of course not and I can't believe anyone would ever do that? Would they?
-
No, Never! I'm not racist in any sense! all people are equals, and deserve to be treated as such!
-
No. That would be an ignorant act.
-
No, I would never do that.
-
I have crossed the street to avoid a bum that was tweeking.
-
No. I try and avoid everyone, I don't care what ethnicity they are
-
Nope,only do it if the person has a dog! LOl
-
Yes, but he also happened to be brandishing a rather large knife. I think it was the knife more than the ethnicity that influenced my decision.
-
No, I'll cross the street to avoid anyone, does'nt matter what ethnicity they are.
-
No, and I don't avoid people because of their race, color, and ethnicity.
-
No, only creepy looking guys and slow moving people
-
I don't anymore. When I was younger I was at a red light, broad daylight. A man of another ethnicity was crossing and I locked my door (I had power locks, but he probably heard the sound) he turned to me and said "nobody wants You", as he continued across the street. As I look back on this I feel silly.
-
NO!!! are you kidding me who would do that if they did thats just sad
-
Hell no, No way would I ever do that.
-
no
-
No, they are just as much human as I am and have an equal right to be on this planet as I do.
-
Never, but I think that is the reason why so many chicken cross the roads...
-
As we are a very mixed family, no...
-
No. I've crossed the street to avoid huge masses of people whose race I couldn't even determine, probably drunk white fratboys, but not because of a single individual of a different race.
-
Yes. I switched sides of the streets because I was passing a known crack house. There happened to be some black guys out front. I would have crossed the street if there would have been a group of white crack addicts in front of the house. I am not a bigot like Obama's grandmother.
-
Of course not.
-
No, gangs of people yes but it would not matter what their ethnic background was.
-
absolutely not!
