Another place that cracks me up is Augusta, GA. I swear it's nothing but Indians(From Asia not the Americas). Which I don't mind any race as long as they don't bug me. My buddy's Girlfriend is from Augusta and all her friends are Indian. Which they are cool and hell and boy can they drink.

 

+1 to RCR.

 

There is no such thing as a job an American will not do. However, most American's will not work for $4 an hour that an illegal alien will accept. In addition to stealing billions of dollars in taxpayer benefits that should be going to American citizens, illegal aliens drive down the real wages that American's should be making. In many industries, construction and meat packing for instance, wages today are actually lower than they were 10-20 years ago because of the overwhelming influx of illegal labor fueled by the special interests and big businesses that have bought and paid for the political parties in this country. Our politial parties have betrayed the American people and sold their souls for money to line their pockets.

 

Im surprised this thread is still even up...
figrued that by now it would be deleted...
Ive had many problems with the koreans in my store, not all but many have tried to steal things..caught them as they were walking out, the japs and chins...ive got a few of them too, but i get about out of a lets say 100 people about 60 is of asian decent, the rest is all over america and mexico.
I had a jappanese exchange student once, and he an i were talking about tourist the funny part was that in his part of town where he lived (dont remember what area exactly) English was first and his was secound...
sound familar he was actually excited about it acuatlly since he wants ot live here in the U.S.
With something like this is broad im sure others dofeel threated its just this is America, if anyone remembers the inscription on

"Give me your tired, your poor
Your huddled masses, yearning to breathe free.
The wretched refuse of your teeming shore.
Send these, the homeless, tempest – lost to me.
I lift my lamp beside the golden door."

How come we cant just accept people...
yeah sure i know i did make some what ofa racist comment about Koreans, but like i explained a few lines up ive had more troubles with them then anyother ethic backgrounds due to the large population of travel to my area is and mostly been Koreans...of course im going to have trouble with them.
And speaking to imigration...we all in a way have traveled from one land to another, think about the pilgruims...
if i remember correctly..werent they from England...
and if that is the case..didnt we (pilgruims) kinda took over the land.
Wouldnt the Native Americans be the orignal people of this land....
Honestly, no one will ever accept a human for a human. the only difference is the skin really.

 

This is a bit off topic but,

Within reason that is true, but just like a golden retriever, pointersandborder collies are dogs and under the skin they are almost the same, the instincts and brains are different. Without going into details, some ethnic groups have average IQs of 85, other average 115 forIQ tests standardized forthe standardnameless ethnic group which of course averages 100 (by definition). If these tests were made and geared differently, that could all change.

People are people, but in many ways all men were not created equal, some are more equal than others when it comes to what the modern world regards as intellegence. When you take this into account, alot more things make sense in this world.

 

"Bunch of racists. Lets see, where my dad is from they speak german. Where my mom is from they speak Spanish. My brother speaks all three.

English is not an offical language of the United States. In Hawai'i the official language is Hawaiian. In any ethnic part of a city, guess what, all you english speakers would be sorely out of place. "


FYI: English is also the official language of Hawaii.

 

FYI: Pulled the information from here and I really have no knowledge on the reliability of these numbers and it's really stupid (err, really mean amusing not stupid) to sit there and try to justify numbers that I was using as a completely absurd retort.

Just take the 8 minutes and watch the first video on here. http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/pages/frontl.../etc/view.html
AND PLEASE comment on this video. It won't kill you. It may not change the way you think. But I'm really interested in what you think of it.

ADDITIONAL THOUGHTS
[ol][*]I believe that you will find prejudice where ever you look, even if it doesn't exist.[*]Prejudice is everywhere. Which really invalidates my last half of the statement above. It is not necessarily applied to race. We may say things, like I don't like people who own that type of dog, that type of car, that type of computer. There are many different sayings people say that reflect this.
(see here for a list of typical sample: http://www.janeelliott.com/statements.htm and http://www.janeelliott.com/clarification.htm for clarifications)[*]When you say that ALL Koreans steal. The same could really be said that all white business owners rude and only want your money and will do anything to rip you off. If you feel all Koreans steal...so be it. But I would think that it could be better applied towards people who are less fortunate and even that is not true. It could be that all males between the age of 14-21 and your store happens to be in Korean populated area. Many people try to do right. The fact that we are very visual creatures, we relate a certain appearance with a certain trait. We can't really help that. If you have a bad experience with a few blacks, you apply a trait to more towards black people. Without having good experiences with the same, with hearing negative comments by other your peers, seeing the negativity on the news...it just seems to back up your assumptions to become fact. Just like during WWII, after Pearl Harbor was bombed, we imprisoned Japanese Americans. We do the same thing for Muslims now. How many of us say that all Muslims are extreme fundamentalists? How many say "them"? Your kind? A common thing is to say, "In many situations, minorities are paranoid and oversensitive. They read more into the situation than is really there. They find discrimination because they are always looking for it."
[*]We are ALL prejudice if you have a negative comment about any type of group, whether is be towards Harley owners, SUV owners, Muslims, Blacks, Asians, Whites, Catholics, Jews, Athiests, nerds, geeks, jocks, men, women, poor, rich, fat, thin, hick, yankee, people who own those little yappy dogs, the police, etc. You may not want to be. You may not believe you are, but it's probably there.
[*]I believe prejudice is driven by ignorance.
[*]Judge people by who they are on the inside and not by the way they look.

To note:

I am not offended by ANY comment I've read on here. I find the subject merely interesting and I'm trying to gain a better understanding of the viewpoints, maybe influence others a little and maybe have a little fun.

I have not had a horrible past. I've only a small handful of issues. The ignorant people who judge me by the way I look really don't matter much to me because they are nothing but a spec in my life. The people who know me, like me for who I am. My English is better than the average American. I can't speak any other language, even Korean (or Mandarin and I'll get off this damn rock when my intergalactic spaceship is complete). I am held back by no one, but myself. I blame no one else.

 

Im going to let this die and be my last post on this topic.

I did watch the video you posted and it was interesting. Another part that was interesting too was: the video was made in 1968 and when the teacher asked "who was different from us" only two ethnics were mentioned blacks and indians, No mention of hispanics. In the last 39 years the table sure has turned. If the question were asked to 3rd graders agian Im sure the answer would be completely different.

WOO Im not what you think I am, I don't go around walking tall as if Im superior to anyone. I do love America and want to keep it "the land of the free" but I do still want it to be America not Mexico.

 

Actually, I'm glad that you brought that up. The same questions the same situations are applied today and taught all over the world. The results are EXACTLY identical today to adults as they were to the 3rd Graders back in 1968. The test applies to ANY kind of prejudice.

RCR, I have no opinion of who you really are. I can get a small amount of who you are from these posts and how you feel on one isolated subject doesn't make you, you. I don't know you in person, I've never talked to you, I've never spent any real time with you. I only posed questions based on what you posted.


Further videos are made, one as recent as 2005 in Canada (yes it occurs there too).
