Why all the questions? Authors can make characters in a book behave in any way they wish. When you ask "is it acceptable?" the natural response is "acceptable to whom?". If an author wants to write a character who's a bigot and it's germane to the plot, I certainly have no problem with that. Do you?
If I had to like every character in a book I'd have a real problem, given that one of my favourite type of book is the murder mystery
