Well....ll.

He might be exaggerating --we all know that, but wasn't he speaking to an Indian?

I do find the comment a bit...elitist...presumptuous...potentially of questionable genesis. Certainly, it's gonna take heat on the internet.

I suppose if he'd said, "You can't walk cross a street in Manhattan without some SUV from Brooklyn blowing your eardrum out with gangsta rap" there would have been a firestorm of protest...I suppose it does introduce the possibility of racial stereotyping, but it is also a fact.

How do you see it?

He was talking to an Indian. It was a bizarre comment as he tried to come up with something to say to the guy.

Ok, here is my take. It is totally racist according to the criteria set by Democrats. The way he phrased it, it sounds like he meant that unless you have an Indian accent you can't go into a 711. What he most likely meant was you couldn't go into a 711 without hearing an Indian accent which could be true.

So, Biden blew it as far as racism goes if you judge him by the same standard as democrats judge conservatives. I mean if you are a conservative and mention that there is a black hole somewhere in the universe then you are racist. Can't give it and not expect to get it back.
