Indians are Asians. You don't make any sense. Yes, they are Caucasian, but they are Asian as well.

You (nor the OP) said American Indians. You said Indians. Learn to speak English.

What quandary is that?

I'm black and I'm sure as hell not complaining.

"400 years."

You've made quite a leap equating racism to murder/violence. The two are not equivalent so please explain why you made that leap. There are millions of ways to be racist without killing someone such as the below ....

1) Pretending that I have not entered your business and not answering my answers when I'm right in your face while catering to others.

2) Giving me poor seating in order to accommodate a party of the same size that came in after me.

3) Telling me that your parents would rather see you dead than married to an African.

I've been a party to 1 & 2 many times both in Ghana and the U.S.

and yes last but not least horrible violence which fortunately I have escaped

What difference does it make? Are you that naive? People tend to use inflammatory verbiage online due to one thing, "ecourage"!!! And why would you even bring up "wishing old white people to retire or die" when have I ever done that? And don't for a second believe others speak for me...

We ate at an Indian restaurant this evening, it was quiet so the owner was quite chatty. He told us he had opened the restaurant 25 years ago when it was the first Indian restaurant in the city. He said to start with no one had any idea what the food was but they soon learned. The restaurant is open 7 days a week for lunch and dinner, more than likely he is there most days.
If he hadn't been willing to work hard and invest in his business then it wouldn't be there after 25 years. We have seen the same scenario with Chinese, Thai and Korean peoples too, they come to this country for a better life and WORK their asses off to be successful and support their families.
There is no entitlement mentality because their success is in their own hands, they don't expect others to pay their way.

If that's the case I would take my business and money ELSEWHERE.

No one should put up with being discriminated at ANYWHERE.

That being said it doesn't give one a free pass on looting, violence and arson.

I've been treated badly at some establishments, guess what???

I took my money elsewhere, it's the best solution to this issue, you can't force anyone to change if they are that way, but you can support businesses that treat people fairly.

In regards to#3 why on earth would you listen to this stupidity, I would tell them to F off and leave, there would be no way I would spend any money at a place like this.

One can argue the accumulative effect of treating people as they are criminals, regardless of their station in life, criminal history, or work ethic. I get pulled over by a cop he addresses me as sir, every single time no matter where it happens. Talk to black people and they have a different story.
I am no KKK member, but I would be mad as hell if everywhere I went I was accused of being a white supremist.
I don't agree with rioting as we have seen at times, but I can certainly understand people getting tired of being treated like criminals regardless of guilt.
In regard to success. Tell someone they can only fail enough times and eventually you get a percentage who will believe it and act accordingly.
