Maybe that has something to do with it in some ways, but not all.

And starang, don't you think it's kind of racist to say that Asians are all smarter and it's not because they study harder? I guess since we're not Asian we are just naturally not as smart, right?
i don't think it's racist at all...because asian people don't have the good ol boy system (i.e. white priviliedge) and can't oppress white people on the whole.

the reason behind that comment was to point out the ignorance and bigotry behind comments such as those already typed out in this thread that try to imply some sort of superiority or inferiority that a certain race has. people don't like it when it's them. for every person that wants to compare people who emulate rap stars, i can compare those who don't perform as well as asians.

no wants to comment on how racist hoosier is, but everyone want to call me a racist. i'm not racist, my best friend is black.



famous words.....if it applies to you, remain offended.
