Stereo-typical behavior

I believe stereo-typing is a big issue in this world. We all do it, even if you say you are not racist or sexist or etc. Think about it, have you ever made a remark about person because of their looks/style,race,religion,situation? I know I have. The reason I think it is such a big deal is sometimes it affects others with a huge impact. Like forsay "Scene kids" as of what everyone seems to think I am. They have the colorful hair, piercings, crazy outfits and makeup, certain taste of music, and sometimes tattoos (well this is what people say a typical scene kid has). This is just how some people like to dress, but it is super hard to find a good paying job when you have colorful hair or metal sticking out of your face, which is unfair in my opinion since they are just expressing themselves.  Another issue is illegal immigrants or "mexicans" People seem to think all mexicans that don't know english are illegal immigrants and they are job-stealing, bad people. I know there is a law somewhere in America where all mexicans can be pulled over to be checked for those papers that say you are a legal citizen.
Is it part of human nature, or are we just ignorant assholes?
