The Highlights

Do you think the people on 9/11 thought those stupid highjackers were going to steal their plane? No they didn't. So now we just think every Arab is a highjacker. Do you know what that's called? That is called a stereotype, Bolles

I am totally guilty of judging books by their covers and (like most people...dont even try to lie) am really guilty for using stereotypes. Lowery

Apparently alot of criminals have big noses so look out! Dewald

People get that gut feeling when something is wrong with a peron, (oprah talked about that the other day!) Hopson

I believe that most of us want to be able to say that we give everything and everybody a fair chance when we know that we don’t Smith

We do it all the time in school.we place people into groups by the way they dress or look. Jessica B.

For example,at first glance i might find Mr. Price as a bit of a creeper, but as i get to know him i realize that he is just really strange... in a good way. Dead Turtle

Sara Volk wrote a lot a lot

Guys like me with with long hair, other think we and mean and drugies, yet I am very nice and friendly and I speak my mind. Whitesell

Greg, don’t berate the question.

That is a good question. we are all told never to judge a book by its cover, but we all do. Clint

YOU CAN SO JUDGE A BOOK BY ITS COVER! THE FIRST IMPRESSION IS THE ONE YOU BASE THAT PERSON OFF OF. Spedden

I would say the way they dress is the X-factor. When i look at someone and i see a well groomed lad in presentable clothing then i would prolly trust them enough to give them a shot. Scott N,

Just because some big old creepy guy with a chainsaw is coming towards you doesn’t mean he’s a psychopath and maybe this guy loves bunnies and just wants to be everyone’s friend. Brandi L.

If some little kid with big nerdy glasses comes up to me, i might throw him a locker. But who knows, maybe he turns out to be a blackbelt in 5 different martial arts and royally hands me my @$$. Robbie Price

It doesn't matter if you are a nerd or a teacher you know you do it too. The only reason that there are popular people in high school is because they make false accusation about people for their own insecurities. Tori

They see someone who is timid and to themselves, or is a slightly awkward in how they carry themselves, that they shun them Ganse

Take olga, for example, if you didn't know her, you would think she was unintelligent because of her facail expressions. Then it’s confirmed when she speaks. Molly

when it comes down too it no matter how hard every person tries they have judged someone before they knew anything about them. Kinsey

P.S. i finally got this blog thing down Mr.Price! haha. Nikki

Creating stereotypes only leads to problems and ignorance.

it's a hell of a lot easier to make judgements on a person by appearance. It's instinctual and widespread. Everyone does it, just like how everyone makes friends they can relate to in both body and mind. Mary

People should be judged by character, not by the color of their skin or the size of thier hindquarters. Spencer

when I met Justin David Handley the Third, I saw a gorgeous face and decided to talk to him. I thought he'd be a jerk by his book cover, but in all actuality, I think we may spend the rest of our lives together now. DC
