You simply misrepresented what I said. I recommend you look up the 'strawman' fallacy so you can understand your own reasoning.

Keep up the name-calling and keep embarassing yourself. Thanks .

I actually have stood in line and paid before someone of their ethnic group whose food they served before they did mine. Yes, I know, I don't have to give them my business and I didn't do it again with those particular restaurants.

If you haven't had such an experience, you either weren't paying attention or you've had better luck than me.



They don't know it and won't have to because they'll just stay in their ethnic enclaves for the rest of their lives.

Ignorant statement.

Actually, I have... at a Mexican restaurant/panaderia in San Juan Capistrano. The ignoring, the rudeness, bla bla. But I've also experienced that at regular restaurants, so I chalked it up to a'hole owners and staff at the Mexican place, much like I do at the non-ethnic places that exhibit poor customer service. I didn't take it as an affront to my master race features.

Immigrant-operated restaurants usually want to serve their own and no on else. They're very insular.



When looking at the issue from a larger statistical point of view... oh, never mind.

I have a friend in Hayward who's Black. Just in case anyone cares. Just thought I'd mention that.
I'm not interested in statistics. I don't read this board to hear about statistics.

I read this board to participate in a pleasant conversation. That's all.

True. American people who aren't rich and can't speak Spanish or Chinese would be crazy to move to California in 2011. The only American people currently moving to California are members of the richest segment of society migrating to the upper crust elitist suburbs of the Bay Area and L.A. or the expensive exclusive neighborhoods in L.A. & SF. California is the entry point for Asians and Hispanics. Uber Liberal California also doesn't believe that these immigrants should have to learn English. Not even in New York City do they announce the stops on mass transit three times in three different languages like the Muni in San Francisco. If you are a regular joe looking for a job in CA and can't speak another language, you aren't going to get a job. Not to mention the minimum wage is only $8 an hour and it is insanely expensive to live in CA. CA has the highest cost of living compounded with one of the nation's coldest job markets and highest unemployment rates. This doesn't sound like the best place to live for an native-born American person who isn't rich enough not to work. Many places in California in San Francisco and Los Angeles do not even feel or look like America. A lot of places in L.A. mine as well be in Mexico and a lot of places in SF mine as well be in China. My mother's family was fresh off the boat and they still live in San Francisco. That's a huge surprise .

Sadly, bigotry is tolerated in every ethnic and racial group except for Non-Hispanic whites. Any non-White ethnic and racial group can and do openly discriminate, particularly against anyone not like them. Look at most "minority owned business", they hardly wring their hands over how many "diverse" people not like them they can hire and promote.

Only liberal whites "celebrate diversity". Other groups could hardly care and would be fine with only having their own ethnic enclave. Sort of comical.

There is no point in even refuting such largely ignorant comments. Go out an meet some people. You are the one in your own ethnic enclave.
