Again, I'm not reading this. If you're a troll, you're wasting a lot of time. Personally, I get the impression you don't have many friends. I'd work on that.
Clearly by giving you the benefit of doubt I misjudged the nature of your character: it's not normal that merely making you think about your own Prejudices (and Prejudice is something everybody has, the difference between people is merely how much they think like that and if they act on it or not) has caused some rant about seeing the ruins of 9/11 and ending in an attempt at hurting me with the kind of psychological poking teenagers use.
I mean, it's normal that pointing out to somebody that the way they think about others isn't exactly far makes them uncomfortable, but most people either dismiss it or do a little bit of introspection and kinda see the point.
Whatever I pushed is tied deeply enough to your identity that you reacted like that. I suspect you're an actual Racist, a real deal proper Racist who thinks that some races are better than others, but you hadn't ever had your views coldly described as they look to the eyes of an outsider, so you believed you way of thinking about people (which you probably share with those around you) was not Racism, rather it was just normal.
I'm sorry that my food for thought turned out to be painful for you and I'll leave you be.
