Re: Black on Asian Violence (Score: 1)

Blacks were looking for "Buddha-heads" and Whites during the last Watts riot. Unfortuately for the Blacks the Koreans business people also knew how to kick ass as they blasted away(have a store in a black neighborhood, even balcks would avoid that!). That was years ago. Race relations aren't better today. Look at some of the stuff said at this site especially the asia-philing referencesand the seamingly anti-inter-racial tone most of the articles and responces reflect.

I have a Mexican freind (deep in Los Angeles ) who's always downing Asians and me, so I give it back to him tortillas, beans and all. But if we weren't so close who would be putting him in check? We always rank on each other. He's always saying something like the Asians act like there better than him(he's a programmer at very significant University). But next time I 'll tell him it's because it's true. We are better.

Societal Acceptance of Anti-Asian Sentiment (Score: 1)

Krazy,

There are so many Asians out there who believe all they have to do is be more submissive and cuddle with white people who have an Asian fetish and they can help white people marginalize ALL black people. They want a white society, actually. Make no mistake about it. That is their white supremacist goal.

In response to your remark about increased anti-Asian sentiment:

"Maybe, maybe not, we'll see. That's not going to deter me or any other Asian from succeeding though. If there is increased violence against us, we'll just have to fight back."

Well, the problem with your response is history repeats itself. The Bible says there is nothing new under the sun.

The psychology, conduct, attitudes and racism of people repeat itself over and over. There are young guys who still want to hold Japanese responsible for the 1941 attack on Pearl Harbor and they weren't even alive when it happened. Ask Bill Parcell's. He will tell you.

Here is a brief history lesson.

During the 1870's when the Fourteenth Amendment (Equal Protection) to the Constitution was being ratified by the states, California refused to ratify it. Nevada was staunchly opposed to it, too.

Would you like to know why???

Well, they wanted to help African-Americans. That was not their problem. At the time, Chinese outnumbered black people 10 to 1 in California. Nevada legislators, eventually, voted for the Fourteenth Amendment, but only after supporters of it convinced them that it would NOT apply to Chinese. I am not making this up. Read your history. It was not until May 1959 that California finally voted to ratify the Fourteenth Amendment. By then, it was strictly a politically correct formality.

There was staunch opposition to the Fourteenth Amendment because it helped Chinese. The Chinese became competitive and, thereby, a possible political force to contend with, so society struck back at Asians.

Like I said, history only repeats itself.

If we ALL do not speak out against racism, then it will hurt ALL of us even if Asians only want to help white people marginalize black people.

Societies don't work like laboratories. They are much more complicated than that. There is a reason for the word "science" in social science. For every action, there is a reaction - negative or positive.
