Well, one of the main reasons that I hate people is because they act like they are so much better than the rest of the world. There are few people that should actually act like this. Let's start with Tim Tebow, he is drop dead sexy, and has the skills of a goddess, I could go on as the list includes, Walt Disney Jr., Miley Cyrus, Bob Saget, and Adam Sandler. For the most part however, people just get plain annoying. You see it all started back when that snake told Eve to eat that apple. The bottom line is people lie, cheat, and sing. Learn to love yourself, and forget about annoying people. Tebow bless.
Is it ethical to restrict rights of certain indivduals for the protection of society?
That's a can o' worms, isn't it? Restriction of rights is sometimes necessary to certain individuals depending on the reason for the restriction. For example, the freedom to travel is restricted for a prison inmate in order to maintain public safety. A judge may restrict an alcoholic's right to drink in order to protect the alcoholic from himself. Persons entering a certain area such as an airport may be restricted from the right to bear arms.
In certain times, restrictions enter a grey area of ethics. Internment of American citizens of Japanese descent by our government was considered a necessary precaution at the time, though most people now consider that decision as unjust. Conversely, many Americans think that racial profiling should now be legal against Americans of Arabic descent. Currently, the Geneva Convention is being violated in the
Certain legal restrictions are in question concerning offenders who are considered less dangerous than others. Sex offenders are required to register publicly for life, while those who commit murder are not. In some states, drivers who are convicted of DUI are required to have a special license plate, publicly proclaiming their offense and subjecting their cars to arbitrary police stops. Many consider these restrictions to be an overzealous "scarlet letter" punishment that oversteps legal boundaries, adding a lifetime sentence to a sentence already paid.
The ethical question must be weighed as such: Is the restriction of one person's right worth the perceived protection to the overall society?

Is multiculturalism a form of racism and why?
Tough question to provide a correct answer. I would say that although some cultures warmly welcome the concept of multiculuralism as the foundation of diverse society, some, on the other hand, object to it by tagging it as a New racism in which individualism is erased and collectivism embraced.
Why aren't all forms of discrimination unconstitutional?
While the obvious ones (racism, sexism, religionism, etc.) are quite plainly unacceptable, things like not allowing everybody into medical schools on the basis of underqualification or to do jobs in sensitive areas like policing and education because of criminal history are just common sense.

During the years 1619-1865 how successful was North America in liberating from racism and slavery?
Between 1619 and 1865 (or, between the first formal appearance of slaves in North America and the final conquest of the slave-holding American South, including follow-up legislation for emancipation), North America was very successful in its liberation-efforts regarding slavery; however, it was profoundly unsuccessful in respect to eradicating racism. By the end of 1865, slavery as an official institution disappeared in North America. Racism, unfortunately, would live on in many different ways in both the North and the South of America.
That is a class of statutes, prohibiting certain treatment of workers, voters, renters, and borrowers based on their unchangeable characteristics - race, sex, ancestry, age, permanent disability, and religion.
Anti-discrimination laws are how the government outlines fair treatment for all people.
Anti-discrimination laws do not require people to be fair, nor give governments the power to rule on what conduct is fair. Anti-discrimination laws do one thing - well or badly - outlaw specified factors from being included in decisions. Eliminate race and sex and age and religion and disability from employment and housing decisions, and you HAVE NOT assured fairness. But then you never tried to.

Equal in what? Women and men do have a few categorical differences - physically, emotionally, mentally. If you think about it, no two people are the same. There are many differences between individuals to be explored and enjoyed.
How much of the differences between women and men is caused by nature or political and social history are important gender and identity issues.
The Universal Suffrage Movement of the 1920s and Feminists movements of the 1970s have greatly improved the rights and political and financial equality of women.
women are equal to men. they have the same rites men do.
Women are not equal to men in any way. Look at the physical difference. Not hard to see why I don't want to be waiting on a 130 lb. woman to rescue me from a burning building. Women should not be firemen or police. They are far better than us intellectually tho.
they should be but sadly men overpower women in so many ways and there is still cruellty to women across the U.K and aroung the globe!!
