A wiki debate, I think I will pass.
Not just a Wiki debate.

Race obviously does exist, to say other wise is nonsense. Stereotypes do not suddenly appear "out of nothing." They are based on a persons experiences with other people of certain races, social classes, or whatever else. Our brains generalise based on the experiences and past encounters we have had with each group.
If that were really the case anyone reading your dribble on here might think that you are a typical Irishman rather than the worm you are, goodness forbid.
if I have observed certain races acting a certain way,
Race or culture?
Races do not "behave a certain way", culture and up bringing strongly influence people's actions not race.
If we ignore our stereotypes
You are confusing stereotypes with experience.
it is rare for us to become racist for the sake of it.
This is true, through experience and upbringing we are programmed to respond to certain things and people in a certain way, this can be interpreted as race distinction but it does not really mean anything.
It would be folly to treat all Swiss people the same way.
