It's been interesting to read up on Mark Cuban's recent utterances. He allowed as how he would be inclined to cross the street to avoid a black youth in a hoodie (and likewise a heavily tattooed white dude). He didn't claim it was rational, but acknowledged his prejudices.

People got all pissed off about the hoodie bit, and Cuban issued an apology for it that acknowledged the pain caused to Trayvon Martin's family and apologized for it and didn't attempt to minimize or deflect the criticism.
