No, what I am talking about is not 60 yrs ago. And even if it was to impact families in the manner that I detailed would impact the members of that family's future for many, many, many years. [MOD CUT/personal attack]

Chinatowns were set up because whites didn't want Asians living among them. Not because Asians kept whites out.

There are Chinatowns all over this world. Longtime asian residents (3rd generation onward) have moved on, Chinatown is destination for immigrants.

It is just normal for people to want to be with other of their own kind.

I see nothing wrong with this.

Laws will never make people like someone.

It's why poles and Jews from Eastern Europe have usually adjacent to each other. Both groups have animosity but the have a more prevailing commercial interest.

Where does Polish begin and Jewish end, though? Many Polish (and Russian and German) immigrants to this country, especially around the turn of the last century, were Jewish.

Most of the Chinatowns are in areas settled by Europeans outside Europe. In Asia (Indonesia, Vietnam, Philippines, for example) it is more as if the Chinese are just another local ethnic group rather than an isolated minority.

Majority of boat people were Chinese.
