People make fun of those who are different for a variety of reasons. Sometimes they fear the difference, other times they don't like having someone who isn't the same as them. The tendency to make fun of those who are different is more common in children as opposed to adults. Most adult know better then to mock those who are different. Normally by adulthood, people know that they should be more mature then making fun of others. Insults that anger me the most are those that are aimed at my family. I don't care if you say something about me, but once you say something about my family or friends I get hot! Nobody has any room to say something about my family to me, so don't. I'm protective of those who are lose to me, and I don't like it when people make fun of them.

Prejudice is found nearly everywhere. In communities, schools, you can see signs of prejudice. Examples of prejudice are, racial hate, sexism, homophobia or religious prejudice. I've seen prejudice in society, I know people who are somewhat racist they aren't vocal about it but they do hold people races differently. I haven't experienced prejudice personally.
