I'm curious here. Judging from your topic title, you consider this person to be your friend, yet your own statments are labeling this man as a racist and a bigot. You seem to indicate that you strongly disagree with his stance on these issues, so how can he possibly be a friend?
It sounds to me like this man is most assuredly not your friend. He is someone you were getting to know on a friendly basis, when you discovered that he had personality flaws beyond the limits of acceptability. It's not like you're talking about something minor like not being able to agree on a place to get lunch, or what to watch on TV when you hang out. This guy has a fundamantal lack of respect for the value of human life in all its forms.
If you're angry with yourself, it's because you know that you are violating your own principles by associating with this person. If he's one of your instructors, you may have to associate with him in a classroom or learning environment, but you don't need to associate with him outside of that.
