you are going in circles

I didn't, and I don't. It's just not the issue that stands out to me about this whole thing. ;) |

alright.
but i kind of agree with some of you.
It IS racist, however in this particular situation, the media is hyping more than it needs to be. |

Isn't affirmative action just another form of racism? that seems to be okay by societies these days... |
well, I'm not saying it's right... its not.
but it really depends on the situation.
In this particular one, in my opinion there is more hype around it than needs to be. |

best part about this story is when the chick says "I'm not racist, I'm of oriental decent" ... common, we all know the nippers are the biggest in racists there are.
btw. to be called a ghetto dude when they don't know you isn't racist, but still a negative connotation that would most likely prevent him from getting the job. Kind of like if Jennie were to walk in for an interview and then the employer says: oh yeah, here's the resumé of that slutty looking chic.
The dude probably is ghettoed, but it's not the bitch's place to assume that right off the bat. She's an idiot for even admitting and saying: oh, I cc'd him by mistake. haha twat! ..and obviously he's milking it for what it's worth. |

| term ghetto can refer to a person of any colour and therefore is not racist. I dont see how being called a ghetto dude is racist |

if they had actually used racist words (and we all know what they are) then id say someone's gonna get hurt real bad. But "ghetto dude" is about as racist as calling someone a suburbanite. (Which in New York would be called "Jersey Boy" and considered derogatory.)
Obviously this guy is milking it dry and that is what people are angry about. Just because they dont agree with his position doesnt automatically make them racist. In fact, i think using his own race as a crutch is very racist of HIM! |
