I was like WTF man ...
I was just wondering if people out there have had problems with being Asian and driving a car around that people here hate us for ... quite frankly this isn't the first time I got write up a ticket for some bull shiit reason ...
I can't help but think cops here are slightly racist ... and making false assumptions and judgements ... and particularly on asians ...
I just needed to vent ... if u know wat im talking about then drop a line ...

why does the cop have to say "CHINEESE PERSON".. why does he have to single out a race?. why couldn't he have just said "a lot of people.. or young people " driving Evo's??

The Irish had it easy brotha. At least they could get jobs as cops and firemen, and they turned out to be some of the more racist s.o.b.s out there give me a break.

See everyone? There are extremists in every group. Islamic, KKK, black panthers, some of the guys on this thread, etc. they're ALL wrong.
to this guy, clearly you haven't read the thread. come back when you have more thoroughly researched this thread. nothing is worse than someone who is not up to date. boring.

I am sure he would think to himself, Mission Accomplished. People stereotype other people in this world. It's a fact of life and it sucks, but it's reality. If you feel the need to tell someone, don't tell EvoM, tell someone who can do something about it. Save these kids the stress and save Azn rice racer from going out and getting himself beat up. Geez. Trust me, life is going to hit you a lot harder than a derogatory comment one day in your future. Maybe every day. Toughen up, man. Sticks and stones may break my bones but words will never hurt me. Ever hear that? There's a reason that saying exists. Because people have been saying hurtful things to each other for 1000's of years. Big woop.

I'd also like to point out that you all (mostly) live in America. By law and by philosophy, everyone has an equal chance at free and happy lives. That means people of all different types. But clearly it is not easy at the individual human level to accept a religion, culture etc other than your own. People get culture shock when traveling to and living in other countries (than their own). Is it so hard to imagine when you invite any type of person in the world to live in the same place under the same laws, etc that there will be problems? Of course there will be periodic misunderstanding and ignorance based hate. That is the nature of humanity. That doesn't change overnight. This country is very new to the world, even if it has been here your whole life.

the only way u get ppl to stop calling you ****** and **** is to get them scared like blacks, white people are scared to call them the Nword ending in R because they're afraid to get beat or shot.
