I don't hate racists or homophobes, is that bad?

That does sound bad doesn't it.

Well it's true. Of course it makes me angry and I think that it's cruel that some people hate someone just because of what they look like or their sexual preference, but I don't hate them for being that way. I mean isn't everyone always like "everyone has their own opinion so respect it", well it's the same situation.

For example...

If someone doesn't like gay people that's not their fault, they were born that way, just like gays were born gay, right? So we shouldn't hate on them for having that opinion. They may have been raised or taught that it is wrong, it may just be how their family is, and they may not agree with it due to religious beliefs and what not.

And as for racism, every culture has a reputation for doing/believing in certain things that you may or may not agree with.

My point is, some people are homophobic/racist some aren't, each to their own right?

My opinion probably sounds immature, but it was going through my head and I had to get it out.
