51. You are expanding the bounds of bigotry

: a person who is obstinately or intolerantly devoted to his or her own opinions and prejudices; especially : one who regards or treats the members of a group (as a racial or ethnic group) with hatred and intolerance."http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/bigot
You are being a bigot.

It is by definition an aspect of the subsets of American culture. That you would even ask for a list shows that you lack a fundamental understanding of what we are discussing. You are just a bigot who will do anything to justify your own bigotry
