Which orifice did you pull this from?
What a pile of b.s.
Do you purposely distribute this kind of crap regularly?
And super duh that criminals do not target people who speak a language...the idiot cop meant people from India and did not know how to say that. There are THOUSANDS of languages in India.
That plus the fact that I have met hundreds of people my whole life who do not know the difference between Hindi and Hindu.
I made no mention of the cop but did no more or less than answer your question on what a Hindi person is.
Additionally, while you apparently quiz people on th difference between Hindi and Hindu, it's sort of hypocritical to have suck a knee jerk reaction to someone who clearly does know the difference and put it out there for informational purposes. Says far more about you than it does about me, btw.
Ladies and gentlemen, first off I hope my question is clear to you.
Have you ever been mistaken as a person of different ethnicity owing to skin tone or facial features. Frequently, other people have mistaken me for being Hispanic, although my actual ethnicity is south Indian. Has this scenario happened to any of you as well. Just wondering, and I have absolutely no discriminatory intentions here.
I look just like tennis player James Blake... so yes, it happens all the time
I'm of Western Asian descent, an Assyrian to be exact (we are similar looking to 'ethnic' Jews, Syrians and even Italians).
Because of my relatively fair skin I've been asked if I'm of Eastern European, Italian and even German or Anglo descent (which is rather strange since I have dark eyes/hair).
^And wow, that James Blake guy is gorgeous - never knew about him.
The reason for my smooth pale skin is genetics from my dad. He was born and raised near Ooty, an oddly cool climate in southern India. This could have (sort of) been a contributing factor towards paler skin (in addition to family genetics) due to low sunlight exposure.
I am a mix of German and English mostly, and I have been regarded as Native American. I have porcelain skin and but I have straight and long dark
hair. I do have the shovel shaped teeth of a Native American, but only my dentist sees that. I do have Comanche from one great great grandmother though. So I guess it's possible that I look a bit Native American.
No, but something funny happened to my friend a few years ago.
We were in Beijing and I was shopping with him at the market. There he was mistaken for a Chinese. Now, if he was being mistaken by a foreigner then that's understandable but this was the local. They started speaking in Mandarin to him. Of course, he hasn't got a clue what it meant.
Im tall, pale skinned, and blond. Like BLOND blond. Im half Irish and half Norwegian, but I always get called German. I get jokes occasionally about aryan, and Nazi crap. Im like dude.....Im not even close to German looking.
