People from China, Taiwan, and Japan are not considered South East Asians, those are Vietnamese, Loas, Cambodians, Thai, Burma, Indonesia, Phillipines.

I wouldn't tell a black person this, you might suffer a major beat down.

"Their Behavior or Some of the People's Behavior" 99% of black people I've met were kind as can be. Your percentage stat is SO OFF I don't know where to begin.

What is your point? Black People are more likely to commit crimes out of slavery in South Africa. I suggest you taking a multi-cultural class.

Most of the blacks I have met have been very nice and we got along great. I have met a few trouble makers and some that hated whites, and I see ALOT of gang members, but few have bothered me. I wonder if has something to do with where you live?

Things like that happen here. You don't hear about it on Fox News though. Abner Louima, in NYC was beaten- there are incidents in South Florida also, and alot of tension. Perhaps California is better- I haven't lived there.

And I suggest you take a history class.
There never was Black slavery in South Africa and under apartheid there was Black immigration to South Africa -- quite a lot of it I may add.

And I would also like to know, if your remark was right -- which it's not -- would cause there be be a "baby rape" epidemic in South Africa and all kinds of other senseless violent crime.

There is much more Black on White crime than White on Black crime. In the UK a Muslim and Black minority commit much more disproportional amounts of crime towards Whites. Parts of London resemble a Third World City in Nigeria or Pakistan.

Last Halloween, in the United States, a group of 10 Black youths beat up 3 Whites. Have you heard this on the mainstream media? No -- Probably not because it's only on there the rare time a White does something against a Black. Case in point the Duke Rape Liar.

I suggest you read up on the "Long Beach Trial" or view crime statistics if you want to see what the real statistics are with regards to interracial crime.

Here is, what I call a 'racist test'. It's very simple - just substitute one color for another. If it's 'racist' for one color, it should be 'racist' for all, right? I mean, there is no 'double standard', is there?

Let's get started:

Black Entertainment Television
becomes
White Entertainment Television (somewhere Jesse Jackson just sat up in bed ...)

National Association for the Advancement of Colored People
becomes
National Association for the Advancement of White People

How is it that if the color 'black' is involved it isn't racism, but if you substitute the color white it is racism?

Hmmmmmm?
