Recently, I decided to conduct a Google experiment and write down what the search engines suggests for the phrase "why are" followed by all kinds of nationalities, races, and localities (alright, "recently" seems to be last March, as evident from the Google theme, but I only decided to post this now).
I did this just for fun and found most of the results funny, some hilarious, and some offensive and controversial.
However, all of them have a reason for being there – statistics. It's what people search for. The cream of the crop. Stereotypes, hilarities, it's all here.
If you can, please don't take them too close to heart. In fact, if you're a righteous conservative thinking of lecturing me, do me a favor and close this page now.
So here goes.
Why Are?..
"Why are canadians"
Afraid of the dark? – I didn't know that, thanks Google.
"Why are brazilian"
Agreed.
"Why are swedish"
Also agreed.
"Why are irish"
Heh.
"Why are palestinians"
"Why are israeli"
Another
And the women… true again.
"Why are mexican"
Ouch.
"Why are hawaiians"
I can think of a few reasons.
"Why are germans"
I can attest to the rude part.
"Why are italians"
We've all seen the movies.
"Why are japanese"
Have you seen a non-weird Japanese video?
"Why are chinese"
The truth is there somewhere.
"Why are russians"
Very observational.
"Why are koreans"
Starcraft – so true.
"Why are british"
This is hilarious.
"Why are spanish"
100% correct.
"Why are polish"
This one was frankly news to me. Poor Polish people.
"Why are indians"
Indians are afraid of dogs?
"Why are armenians"
I've never seen a non-hairy Armenian.
And something more generic, without comments.
"Why are white"
"Why are black"
"Why are asians"
And something more local.
"Why are new yorkers"
"Why are texans"
Of course I saved the best for last:
"Why are americans"

Funny stuff. "Why are French" has also some interesting stuff. It seems the majority of results from any "why are" is negative, though, why so?
Damn, how did I miss the French?
And yeah, most are negative unless it's about how hot the girls are. It's what people are searching for – the next one should be "why are people"… eh?
Canadians? Scared of the Dark? Haha.
lol… Indians are afraid of dogs? you bet…
There are soo many here
try the hop, skip and jump thing, you'll still find dogs 
I really enjoyed this post. It got me to open another tab and try it out for myself. I actually learned something. One thing I didn't know potatoes are bad for dogs. And one that made me go huh…. why are politicians called honorable.
Seems like most of the results for:
"Why are democrats"
and
"Why are republicans"
are focused on their stupidity also
