All I'm saying is that Asian cultures are often very racist, sometimes with their own cultural groups as well (Western born Asians going to the "old country" to work often talk about locals not really grasping that they too can be foreign.)
Because my boss said it in reference to the young man who killed all those students at Virginia Tech to my fellow coworker. You can see the seething anger he had toward my boss.

I know how it feels when some crap like that is said to me. But because it is happened so often, I have developed defense mechanisms. The mental combat tactics have to honed.

That's why I argue with ignoramouses on GC!!! It helps me say all kind of crap to people who are "real" in my life without having to go crazy...

Yes, I know some Asians are "racist" (your terminology). I work with both Japanese and Chinese. You should see the elitism among some people... I haven't figured out a way to deal with it, but I know it is wrong when folks say that chit.
