Totally true. Any one who has lived in an Asian country knows that.
And President Obama and the GOP have just supported the greatest racist presidential edict ever against blacks. Amnesty or immigration reform.
Sounds like you live in Edison or Iselin, NJ.
Well that little bru-ha-ha over in Rwanda a few years ago when the Tutsis and Hutus got into with panga machetes and it and left hundreds of thousands dead does not count as they were all the same color.
Then there was that incident years ago when hundreds of people were slaughtered crossing over from Bangladesh into India. Speared and arrowed. Again same color.
But maybe that is why we no longer worry about who is slaughtering whom in CHICAGO as they seem to be all the same color.
Only when a white kills a black do we in the USA scream RACISM! There is no reciprocation in such cases. Racism only goes ONE WAY. (Feel the sarcism)
The principles that support “the American Way” or the ideals and symbols that represent those principles have been sadly neglected in recent years, making these pockets of racist behavior all the more stark in their marked contrast.
At one time, there was a series of courses taught as part of the necessary curriculum for high school graduation, known variously as “Civics”, “Social Problems”, or “American Government”, which gave at least a general overview of what America was supposed to be, and how the various levels of government were supposed to operate. In the social revolution of the 1960’s and after, these were pretty largely purged from the core curriculum, replaced by “diversity” and emotional “touchy-feely” courses, more for indoctrination than for the development of genuine understanding of the real world.
So today a large part of the Millenials, Gen X or Gen Y, and even college students, as well as those who never even finished the requirements for high school graduation, have NO idea of just what it is that America is supposed to represent, and us older folks may still mistakenly believe that these younger folks have some understanding of just what it was that formed and shaped nearly all previous generations of Americans, and those who chose to become Americans.
Now the push is on to make “citizens” out of a bunch of people, with no close ties and not even born here, who do not even have a nodding acquaintance with what it takes to make up a representative republic.
What is wrong with this picture?
California will be purged of blacks by these new migrants. It is already happening.
I have had many people of all colors and ethnicities ask me if I am racist. My answer is always the same: “Locally, no. I treat everyone I know and meet with dignity and respect. Globally, yes.” They then, of course, ask me what I mean by, “Globally, yes”. My answer is always as follows:
“When I see people like Race Hustler Sharpton, $hakedown Jackson and Obemba come on TV to cry about ‘racism’ then it makes me hate them because I do not see all of this ‘racism’ on the street when I meet people.”
They always tend to begrudgingly agree and say that they have never looked at the issue in those terms.
I fully intend to plagiarize this most excellent response to the question!

Pretty good description of Ophonybama, I’d say!
I spent a lot of time in Honduras, and the "indigenous" looking Hondurans were treated like dirt. The casual racism against them was appalling. The darker the Honduran, the lower social standing except the Africans. Those had come over on a pair boats back a few hundred years ago and they aren't lumped in with the "natives".
It reminded me of that Star Trek episode "Let that be your last battlefield" where half the people were dark on one side and white on the other and the other half of the people were opposite. Hondurans would indicate "avoid that guy, he's a lowlife" and just like Kirk, I couldn't see why, they looked the same to me.
Define “the racism industry.”
dark-skinned vs light-skinned Mexicans ...
If you really want to hear some nastiness, check out how light-skinned Mexicans treat south Americans like people from Guatemala or Honduras.
Not pretty.
At the same time, a friend from Puebla is dark but tall and has a Masters degree in Chemistry. He rolls over this discrimination with humor, (”I'm from Tiero del Fuego...”) is one of his opening lines.
“I fully intend to plagiarize this most excellent response to the question!”
Plagiarize at will. We have to get the word out! ;-)
We should also try to add a stabbing reference to the “enabling MSM”.
