This is the country who buys up our debt. This only shows the kind of insanity we get our selves into so we can spread "democracy" via force in the middle east.

Its time to end big government, have sound money and don't borrow money from China and prop up military dictators around the world. Its not the in constitution to be the policeman of the world.

If you want to see real bias/prejudice/racism, see how the chinese treat japanese, and how koreans treat vietnamese, let alone who they treat foreigners, though most of it is not from American media, but from how other travelers have treated them.

When I was in Japan, I was told MANY times, "You don't act like American tourist". Well I really wasn't a tourist, being a sub sailor, but I met the Japanese people, as well as the Koreans, as well as the people in every other country I visited, on their terms. I got to see places in Japan, most Americans never got to see, and meet the people of Japan and many other countries on their terms. It's even more interesting when they learn that not everyone is the same as the "Pushy tourist".

I feel guilty for laughing at this but...


Yes I have.

And it wasn't pretty.

Why should i prove that? I never said that was the case, did i? I said that i can prove more racism from whites than i can from Chinese. That has nothing to do with the US government. Our government isn't "white," it's only dominated by whites.

How many White people do you know?

How many actual Chinese people do you know?

You think there's ANY chance your sample might be a tad skewed?

Yes...quite skewed. But then, i'm a product of my environment. I'm from Arizona, not Beijing. That's not my fault. I'm obligated to speak from experience right here where i live and grew up.

As to how many White people vs Chinese people i know, that's a valid point. But i'd bet that i know more white people than any white person on here knows black people, and yet, they speak about black people with the authority of someone who is a member of the black community. And they do it all the time on C-D. So although i see your point, i don't see where you're being fair here.

REALLY?

You say you see more racist Whites than you do racist Chinese. Then you admit you know very few Chinese people as compared to Whites.

But I AM THE ONE being unfair???

Okie Dokie......

But the OP of this thread proves that Chinese are racists against blacks (not only blacks )

Can you imagine the ****storm if a business in the US refused to serve alcohol to blacks specifically this openly? Let alone the US government telling business to exclude blacks from being served alcohol?

Or do you like to be abused by Chinese specifically?
