As a result, suppressed prejudice colors the way information gets processed. If that processed information gets challenged, there is a tendency to cast about for rationalizations to cover for what is really just prejudice speaking.

Good example. Most people associate 'illegal immigrant' with Hispanics and see enforcing the border as the way to combat it. The reality is that most new ones are Asian who are over-staying their visas. Closing the border does nothing to change the situation.

One of the interesting aspects of the shooting of the 12 year kid in Cleveland was that the cop who shot him believed he was 20 and called that info into the station before shooting him.

Here is a photo of the kid that was shot.......I don't how recent it is but he does look about 12 in the photo:



Its hard imagining anyone mistaking him for 20.
