JustErin said: You know, I really have to say that the US is un-fucking-believable when it comes to racism. I know that its not perfect in other parts of the world but some of the stories my brother has told me about his travels in the states make my skin crawl - and he travels the world on a regular basis. He says nothing even comes close to the US in terms of all out, in your face racism.
I'm sorry you had to deal with that total bullshit. I know I've been accused of U.S.-bashing for this before for saying it, and no doubt will again, but I've travelled quite a lot and nowhere have I seen the level of blatant racist crap as in south of the 49th. Nowhere. Everywhere you go there's going to be some issues with race, but it doesn't even get close to what's going on in the States. "A Watcher scoffs at gravity!" | |

My husband and I are hispanic, and we were shopping for some new furniture in a very upscale store in town. Not a damn sales person would come up to us, we had to flag a person down, and they looked at us like we were crap. People can be so shitty. We walked our asses out of that store, and spent our hard earned money some where else. Good for you. They don't need your money, "A Watcher scoffs at gravity!" | |

I have a terrier, so he's a natural-born asshole. But he's still more pleasant than a lot of humans I could think of. "A Watcher scoffs at gravity!" | |

this story makes me so sad. Sad that such pathetic closed minded little bigots are still bred and raised I have a funny story for you: my 2 friends and I were walking in a dark alley (asking for trouble I know ). I was the only white one. A security guard from on top of a building was bored and looking for a laugh, so he yells down to us "you're nothing but a bunch of dumb white sluts" and my friend Huia, incensed, yells back at the top of her voice "WHO ARE YOU CALLING WHITE!!!!" and we laughed so hard at her for not objecting to dumb or slut | |

I was in daytona with some friends. We were in the car and we noticed this car continiously honking at us. Now, keep in mind I'm the only black girl in the car. Anywho, this car kept honking, and we figured it was in the lane next to us,the turning lane. So the light turns green and as he is turning, he rolls down the window and yells out, "F-IN N*GGER!"at me. Yeah, I wasn't to happy =/. People make me angry. What did your friends say? My friends were wide eyed and gasping and repeatedly said, "Im sorry" and I was like, "YOU didn't call me that, and you don't have to apologize". But thanks everyone. It's whatever, bump em'. Your lips would make a lollipop too happy. | |
