No, they're saying they don't want to be around a bunch of racist white people. Just like gays who inquire whether places are gay-friendly, because they'd prefer not to be surrounded by homophobic bigots.

White people aren't the only ones who are racist, please tell me you are not that ignorant. The simple fact that they are thinking ALL white people are racist, so they don't want to live around them is very xenophobic and racist right there. It works both ways.

This is beyond lame. How can anyone not see that it's offensive when anyone says "There's too many Asians" or "There's too many hispanics"? When you're saying this, it's implying that its a bad thing to have Asians or hispanics around. That is racist and would be no different if anyone says "There's too many white people".

Yes there are people who ask for certain neighborhood where a certain ethnicity (Asian, hispanic, AA, etc) would either feel comfortable in or if there are other of the same ethnicity around but I have yet to see anyone asking it because they feel too many white people are around. If they would do that, I would call them out on it as well.

Also what I find highly offensive about the OP saying "I don't want to be a minority in my own country". This is flat out saying that this country is for white people as if this country is not for the Asians or Hispanics he's mentioning that theres too many of. Guess what..many of those Asians and Hispanics are Americans too so live with it.

When a person of is (fill in an minority ethnic group) says I want to live in a place that has some (same minority ethnic group), it does not mean they don't want to live around white people.

I agree completely and pointed that out earlier. However, our resident racist troll called mbell just called me an idiot and spews completely bigoted garbage over and over.

Yet when someone simply asks what has happened to the white people in CA or ask where there are areas with more white people, they are automatically labeled as racist xenophobes The funny thing is, no one even knows if the OP is white or not in most cases. This forum is a complete joke sometimes.

Do you seriously think that an Asian, Hispanic, Black, Gay, pink, blue or any other minority would actually say the following?

Too many Asians here
Too many Mexicans here
Don't want to be a minority in my own country
