I agree with that to a degree. However, its more people actually exposing their racism instead of keeping it to themselves. People here are extremely passive agressive. Basically, talk to you like your cool then talk s**t behind your back.

Its totally not like that when I lived in Florida. You knew where people stood...I enjoyed that even as a kid.

If someone thinks you are a lower life form, whether they are public or private about it, it's all the same. The only thing is whether your feelings are spared or not.

For instance, I routinely serve less food at the restaurant I work at to Hispanics. They are none the wiser.

I am not sure I understand, you purposely serve Hispanics less? What's your reasoning for that?

No, I would like the same amount of food as everyone else gets. So basically you discriminate against Hispanics and give them less food than you would a non-Hispanic?

Why? Any particular reason?

I'm not discriminating. Culturally I've found that many Hispanics prefer less food (and I've been told by many of my friends whom are of Hispanic descent). I go out of my way to serve them because of my respect for their culture.

Yeah copout is what I thought you would pull. Well I am here to tell you that you are discriminating against Hispanics, if they pay equal price, they should get equal serving.

Besides why post this in the OC is racist topic? and why this comment:

I really hope you are just trolling and not really doing that.

Let's say this is me in the middle of this picture, do I look like I don't want all the food that I pay for? But the guy on the right (my cousin) would want all of his food?

Mach50, do you even live in OC? Are you attuned to the special culture that permeates throughout here?

You just don't get it man.

I was born in Long Beach, I did live in OC (Newport and Irvine) and I still have MANY family and friends there.

What "special culture" do you speak of? What is it that I don't get? Please elaborate and answer my questions above.

I lived there for 44 years, and I don't get it.
