and what DO you mean by this sir? apathy is dangerous...


All this is based off your beleif thatthe USA is "the world" and I completely disagree. God people like you make me want to move from the US. We have completely dumbed down our population and created a people who all think they deserve everything. Humble has left the dictionary.
LOL, colonization is practiced by animals. You act like if there was no America there would be no colonization. Well, we all know that's not true. Even third world countries colonize. It's called survival. You can go live in the jungle if you want to, but I'm staying with the colony.

Your mind is very closed.

A view:

This is a topic viewed with many angles,so many that my fricken head is spinning .Was it racist that the U.S. government had hoards of immigrants come in boatloads to the USA via Ellis Island for decades being inspected like livestock? I know my families were, If you walked strange looked strange, acted strange, or could not take care of oneself or differed from what "Uncle Sammy" thought a potential "American" should be, you were about faced and shuffled back on your floatilla back to your origin asap.THIS SYSTEM has not been viewed by most of the ones who complain in this topic of discussion.

My point is, some not all people Whine like a stuck pig about a jerkoff pulling them over. While I agree this is wrong, What is your whining accomplishing?? Either take a stand, or shut the F%$k up. The oppression you display is just a fart of what the first immigrants had to expirience when entering the "land with streets paved with gold" Quite frankly why did your families immigrate here? So your sorry asses could cruise around and complain? There were no laws, whining lawyers back when the first immigrants came here.

While this country is not perfect, but 100xs better than most. One has to learn to live with boundaries. Without a boundary life would totally revert back to the days of the cave dwellers. Nothing is perfect, but complaining like a seven year old child will never fix it. If you have $ get a lawyer or silence your rachet jaw. Peace

I'm sure your display would work wonders with Law Enforcement. After your missed court appearance you license would be revoked, and now that gives them more reasons to bother your non conforming @ss.

i don't understand how my mind is closed while i respect people's struggles and the history that has brought the united states to where it is and you only mean to trivialize it.

and i am not in any way saying that anyone deserves anything but this is america, and we live on earth, where everyone should be free right? or shall some be enslaved... is that ok? is it not fair to question injustice so that its tolerance can be abolished and its existence can cease? what is your problem with doing the right thing?

and it's not that if there is no america there is no colonization... c'mon here... colonization was first practiced by europeans... you know this... yeah?

i feel as if being in college has put me in some sort of euphoria where i'm the "only" peron under the impression that socio political action against injustice is the right thing to do. wtf? and i'm a ****in' physics major...

god damn no one gives a **** about anything... just because it's "nothing compared to YOUR ancestors" you shouldn't complain... shoudln't try to make the world better... perfect... even if it IS a losing battle wtf not try to make some kids faces brighter in the future so you don't get ****in' racism and ****?

and some of you are gonna be raising kids... to perpetuate the evil in this world... holy ****... this is how history repeats itself...


and you know what... i agree... this country is 100x better than anything out there, even europe. but does that mean you should just let it go... not keep it up... not keep it great... not keeping it better?

i have my views about bush... i think he's not eh smartest... and i know he's in iraq for oil... but hey... better the US than someone else right? but do i respect those that "compalin" about the war in iraq? YES i do... why? because it's wrong to ****in' kill people, because you HAVE to have BOTH sides of the coin in order to be educated and not ignorant.

Hey I'm not here to convince you of everything. You have been socialized in the way that you were so you have your predispositions. Fine. So does everyone including me. No one is arguing that you should fight against what's wrong. But let's be fair, how about just desserts? Yes, go to war over crimes against humanity. But this thread is about an ignorant man, regardless of his job, making a rude comment to another man. That's not a crime against humanity. It's just an insult. Mountains out of molehills. Spare me the bleeding heart crap. I went through that stage too and you know what? I was much less happy than I am now.

is being racist or making a racist comment just simply rude?

and i wouldn't doubt that everyone is happier where they are... else they wouldn't be there... honstly how can anyone that is happy with where they are do anything... if they weren't happy the way they are... the world is filled with stuff to be upset about. but im' not here to say oh woe is the world... just sayin'... racism = bad, fight it.

LOL, I'm surprised he didn't start a thread! That is so horrible! Oh my gosh what should we do? Let's take it to the authorities!! Funny how everyone crying on this thread probably thinks that it's no big deal to call someone a good ole boy or a redneck but it's the same thing. Such hypocrites.


Everybody talks. Yes, fight racism. First, figure out the difference between racism and being a jerk.

see i'm so confused... what's so unracist about what the "jerk" said? what does a person's race... chinese or otherwise have to do wiht the type of car they drive? and would the cop just as easily address YOU and whatever race you are as... there's too many of YOUR kind driving your import cars around.

is that not a negative prejudice put upon the person that started this thread? a negative prejudice leading to a violating comment, isn't that racism? what's racism to you, someone gotta die? get beat... get verbally assaulted, racism can be a ****in' glance... and tru it's not significant until there is violence but as i suggested earlier... violence is not just the physical type.

if anything i still stick to what i said earlier and say that racist cops are dangerous, someone that has authority and power who has negative prejudices and isn't afraid to express them... c'mon... no one wants to get beat just cuz their skin is different or whatever.

The fact of the matter is we all have defining characteristics. I guess my point is that I think the word racism and it's whole definition should just be thrown out of the dictionary. I mean, your skin color is a unique defining feature like any other body part or organ (considering skin is an organ). It's my opinion that people should be no more offended from a skin or eye comment than getting told they have a big nose, duck feet, short legs, whatever. Having the idea of racism just gives people an excuse to get excited about what is really nothing more than saying you have a big nose. Tons of people have big noses. I think mine is kind of big. If someone tells me that I am not going to cry nosism. Because you know what? So what if I have a big nose? It doesn't make me any more or less valuable than another person. So what if you have yellow or black skin? It doesn't make you any more or less valuable than another person. As long as you know that what's the problem? It's certainly not yours. It's theirs. Let them live their life with their problem. It's not going to affect the outcome of your life.

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 ...
This kind of stuff happens way too often....I'm not asian, but I've been pulled over a number of times for DWB........driving while black....many white folks don't seem to grasp the situation because it does not happen to them......like Bob Marley said "he who feels it knows it".

I love how people who aren't white think only they get pulled over for no apparent reason. Because you know what man? You don't know that he pulled you over for being black. Did he tell you that? You're black so I pulled you over. Yeah right. You're so ready to blame your skin color no wonder the world is as "racist" as it is. The guy who was pulled over was pulled over because of his license plate cover which are illegal in many places. What were you cited for? Surely not driving while black. There are millions of black people who make it to their desinations every day without being pulled over. Why don't you examine your driving skills instead of your skin?

You have no idea how old it gets for us rednecks to hear, "Oh it's because I'm black, huh" when you don't get your way, especially when so many of us whitys are trying so hard to pass laws, act kindly towards, hire in favor of, etc, the minority. Damn, there are special grants, scholarships, job opportunities, etc etc etc because of skin color. Everybody wants their cake and eat it too. Nothing's ever good enough.

If you live your life looking for racism your bound to find it.
