Pathogens are a relatively modern invention. Racism is a learnt response, created by Anthropologists who created the entire modern concept of "race" to justify European imperialism over other "lesser" "races". Genetically, we are all members of the only race, the Human one. It is what allows all humans to interbreed. We are all one species Homo Sapiens Sapien - "Wise humans", although reading this sort of bullshit on the web continually makes me wonder sometimes just how wise some of us are.

Dont buy it Brian, Racism is a natural defencive responce to protecting ones family and territory ,,
If it is "natural" why then do when new tribes/peoples are first contacted by White people, they are invariably welcomed, accepted? Be it in North America, South America, Oceania, Africa. People generally accept other people when they first encounter them. "Racism" is a learned response. It comes out of fear of them after their actions.

The other is a 72 year old, well dressed woman who presents like a doctor's wife.

You can only wand one of them. Which one do you wand?

You're deliberately ignoring my hypothetical Brian. I said you can only wand ONE of them. Which one is it to be?

Remember, the lives of the 400 people on the plane depend on your decision.

I am indeed, "Nicole" because it is playing a game I don't want to play. It is a pointless hypothetical, there is always time, no matter where or when, to slow events to allow you to wand everybody.

Tell me, how do you react to someone with a laptop with this on their screen when you get on a plane?

Not in the slightest. People are people but people do not react negatively to other people until the other people do something bad to them. Guess what many White People (not all though) invariably have done to the uncontacted Indigenous people after they have contacted them?
