you should have made them cry.
young, dumb, and full of ****... i bet you they'll never forget those couple of minutes of conversation with you.
they obviously knew what they said was wrong...stupid, stupid people.

reminds me of a year ago. i was at a bar and this big white dood was staring at me for the longest time. he came up to me and asked me what im doing there. i said im having a beer with my buddies whats it to you. i was drinking with a couple of white female friends. then hes like what are you girls doing with this gook? he's the reason we have high taxes in america. and he babbled on and one for like 2 minutes. obviously he was drunk so i let it slide then finally he looked at me and said "go back to your fcukin country you commie" (communist). that was the straw that broke the camel's back and i got up and yelled stfu u fcuken hick. im a fakin corporal in the united states marine corps. wtf have you done for your country? he had this deer in the headlight look.
he prolly thought i was a soft spoken typical asian guy but after i said that the bartender came out and asked him to leave. oh this was in west la.

people are like this in cali too. in lancaster, which can be known as a "redneck" town as it used to be a big agricultural place back in the day, its still a common thing. we were returning the other day from lunch and this really fat white kid from the continuation school shouts "get some orange chicken ****ers" towards my asian looking friends. ones chinese and the others vietnamese, im sri lankan but ignorant people dont understand thats asian too. anyway i went up to him and kindly asked him to apologize to my friends and he threw his cup of salad on the ground and took off his jacket and immediately tried to fight me. i kept telling him i didnt want to fight but he could only reply with "come on homie". by this time the school security had seen and was heading our way so he and his friends took off running although they were caught as i dont think he could run that fast. well thats one of my racist experiences

This is freakin hilarious to a non-asian like me. I guess it wouldnt be as funny if some white lady ask me where the rice and beans are located. Either way, ignorant people will remain the same.

Five minutes later, We happend to run into them again. One of them had this look on their face like they saw a ghost. I stopped in front of them as asked them why they would say something like that. They replied that they just had a bad experience with an asian. I told them that doesn't matter and that you shouldn't say things like that. They just kept saying sorry as i kept asking them why they said that. They looked like they were about to cry. And me and my gf just walked away.
I thought that was pathetic to still have people saying things like that this day in age. I hope that when I move there, I won't have an experience like that again. I'm glad that cali(especially socal) is so diverse

We all gave each other the confused
look.. and we politely excused ourselves from the situation.
we gave the lady the benefit of the doubt because she was elderly..like 80 something with a cane. We just assumed she grew up in a diffrent generation so we let it go. But if it had been some punk white kids.. it'd been over.. we woulda beat them to a pulp with our calculators.
Stuff like this has happend at clubs/parties.. where some drunk white/mexican guy would make some racist remark about asians.. buncha people would jump in.. cops would be called.. its nothing new..
Racism is alive.. and will probaly never go away.
