Where in the world are you getting this nonsense? Here we go with the race card again. Got it laminated yet?
I play one card...the human race card.
Racism was a term used by others in the past to make understanding of why others loathed them...so the only "reason" oppresed peoples could figure out why others subjugated them was the obvious differences of skin color. Today, people understand all former claims of "racial" inferiority made of people of color were and are bogus.
Homo sapien sapiens is the one and only race. All other "racial" divisions are segregates. All humans are individuals and must be judged on the specific content of their character and comportment.
Humans today are "catogorized" and "marginalized" on much more than precieved "racial"[slin color] differences...Today Intolerence has over-taken "racism" as the mode of discrimination.
Intolerants catagorize and marginalize others based on religion, sexuality, language, wealth, just to name a few.
Outside China you really won't be speaking Chinese. More companies and international organizations require French or English language skills than Chinese or Spanish. If the number of native speakers was the only factor then Hindi and Spanish would be more important to know than English.
Like I said, outside China you aren't likely to use Chinese.
“In much the same way that the dollar remains the preferred currency, English will remain the preferred language for the foreseeable future,” Hafrey said in a telephone interview. Mandarin speakers can gain an advantage in doing business in China, Hafrey said.

Does that mean we can do away with Affirmative Action, because, you know, that specifically refutes everything you said above, champ.

Below are your exact words of which I replied to. If this isn't pulling the race card then I don't know what is. You're attempt to back away now and put a different spin on it doesn't cut it with me.
"You are not allowed to point out squalor in America. Racists and Bigots hate it when you turn on the light. They are like vampires or roaches".
As I mentioned in an earlier post, these cities are products of severe economic downturns and other social issues. And consider this. You have areas of Appalachia that are very poor, about as poor as the cities you mentioned.
I just remember this from the election time, maybe someone will get a kick out of it.
It was a few days before the election and I'm driving to work. This Chevy PU passes me and I'm thinking "I have to speed up and see this yahoo". The PU had a Bush/Cheney sticker on it and next to that a Romney. An NRA sticker next to a Confederate flag sticker. Turns out it's an Asian dude. Total redneck.
I was thinking, wow maybe there is hope for the immigrants because this guy sure was embracing America LOL.
Definitely not an immigrant. Had to have been at least 2nd or 3rd generation American, more likely the latter
