Many Americans have no friends of another race: poll

And at the end of the day, the Swede is successful. His dinner in hand, he triumphantly poses for the camera.

All that remains now is notes for the next day; the bait with which to cast tomorrow.

I tried making friends with a fish once but he kept forgetting my name every seven seconds after that a penguin ate him.

So I tried to make friends with the Penguin but he was German and had no sense of humor.

The figures highlight how segregated the United States remains in the wake of a debate on race sparked by last month's acquittal of George Zimmerman in the shooting of unarmed black Florida teenager Trayvon Martin. President Barack Obama weighed in after the verdict, calling for Americans to do some "soul searching" on whether they harbor racial prejudice.

If Im not mistaken according to the investigators, the courts, the prosecutors, the defense, and the jury. Race was NOT a factor in this serious of unfortunate events leading to the death of the late Mr. Martin. Race wasn't an issue until it was made a issue by the most self-righteous reverends, poverty pimps, politicians, and media and the local subsim fisherman

I guess it would depend on how one defines friend.

I suppose I am one of those who only have friends my own race... Perhaps because I have very few friends as I place a much higher definition on friend than some others do. I have many more acquaintances than I have friends.

But I know other people who consider everyone they know as a best friend.

To each his own. But it does make collecting these statistics a bit more problematic.

Tis better to be color blind and see only other human beings.
If they bleed a different color, then I might be a tad prejudiced. But, probably not.... "Welcome to Earth."

Infinite diversity in infinite combinations.
