Funny

Its funny how people think that Native Americans are such bad people. Although they have the highest mortality rates related to alcohol use. Other races have higher mortality rates in the catergories of firearms or drugs (Http://www.azdhs.gov/phs/tribal/pdf/pao_hshandout021605.pdf). People just point out all of the bad things, they don't notice the good things. Such as all of the families that manage to stay away from alcohol and have a successful family. Native Americans did have the highest mortality rate overall, but Blacks were not far behing, followed by Hispanics, and then Whites. Racism and stereotypes help contribute to these a lot, at least I believe they do. In my personal life, of all the Native Americans I know, majority of them are good, successful, honest people. But out of all the white people I know, a lot of them are alcoholics or drugs addicts; over all, in my eyes it is the white people who are the worst people, but I have been in contact with way more white people then other races. In the end I think that race does not matter if you are a good or a bad person, its just your own personal morals.
