This is a question Prejudice

"Are you prejudiced?" asks StapMyVitals. Have you been a victim of prejudice? Are you a columnist for a popular daily newspaper? Don't bang on about how you never judge people on first impressions - no-one will believe you.

Haitians.
I was once slashed by a knife wielding, Haitian crackhead who was kind enough to kick me in the head after he had taken my wallet. Now I know you can't judge a whole nation by the acts of one of it's population, but because of that twunt I do have to admit I was not as saddened by the earthquake as most other people.
I am not proud to admit this but it's the truth.

May I respectfully suggest...
...that the operative word in your opening sentence is "crackhead" rather than "Haitian".

That is the point.
I now absolutely hate crackheads but felt an apathy towards a tragedy in Haiti because of a minor incident in my life - which is a fact. I was rather shocked at my reaction and could have denied it's existence but I felt it needed expressing.

I'm frequently shocked at the way my brain works as well.
It's weird how we form opinions on people. My friend got into a fight with someone who looked a bit like Mika, and now hates their music (he was one of the ones who liked them). Sort of the same thing I suppose :P
