its just really ********* up when we live in a society where i for one have mates who are chinese, indian, japanese, mexican, koean, african, arabic, italian and so on and so on almost people from everywhere, but as soon as you make one comment as a joke that describes someone by the colour of their skin you will be slammed as a racist. how can this be??? if you have two people standing next to each other one who is african and one who is chinese and someone askes you to tell the biggest difference to between them you are going to say one is black and one is yellow... you are only being descriptive of these people but you will be slammed for racisim...
the other thing how can someone call anyone else a racist for any comments that are made when the there is no hatred or disrespect behind the comment???? what i really dont understand is that for an example you have jewish people here who will call someone a racist however if you were to go to israel you cannot live there unless you are jewish but noone says anything about that because it is their right. yet we could not even begin to think of doing anything like that.....
i do not know a single person of any race is a racist. i do know of many people from many backgrounds who all have jokes to say about another race, all have from time to time insulted someone using their race as part of the insult but it is always the white people who get labelled as a racist not as often is someone from another background labelled racist for doing so here...
