My wife is japanese and I am from the land of caucasia. She is only hasseled whenever I am not there. I would kill anyone who would mess with my wife. I can't believe there are still people out there that judge you by the color of your skin or the car you drive.
Another thing. So what if you drive a maxima, yugo, bmw or a skateboard? Why do people get hng up on such things? It only matters if you say you are better than the other person. Don't talk $hit unless you can back it up.

 

I know how you feel, I am an Indian (Parents from INDIA) but I was born and raised here in the US. But still we got crazy *** people and aint much you can do about it, people will remain that way an we alone aint gonna be able to change it

Just gotta move on sometimes

 

Im the same way BigDogJonx. But where i live, i dont really get hassled about it.

This is kinda Offtopic too...

 

Hello punkrawk2001, you got all my compassion, I was borne in Montreal - Canada, so I am a french canadian, my ancester had to live thrue horrible situation long time ago so I know what you feel when any idiot start to be racist. It is all a matter of education, the other days I was explaining to a racist that it is not my fault if I was born french just like any other guys from whatever country, everybody has the right to live decently without being criticize about his skin color or the language he or she speaks. Honestly I am proud of myself today cause I was able to make a lot of friends in different cultural ethnie, doing so made me learn so many different things, like cooking I can make sushie, oriental saute, italian food, indian food etc. this is not saying that I speak fluently french, english and my spanish is not bad at all also I can understand & speak a bit of italian.

There is one thing that bugs me a lot, when people say oh your friend is black, no body should ever mention that, I have many friend that have African background and when they present me to their friend they never say oh he is white, they respect me for what I am, and I have great relation with any people from any country. If we take a look at our internal organ and body we are all the same and everyone in this world have red blood also depending on where are ancester where from we can have different morphology and this is what make the beauty of this world, imagine for a second if we would be all totally identical that would be a mess.

I would say ignore those stupid ignorant racist, they do not worth any attention at all not even our rage.

Cheers and peace to all, thank god sushie and tandoori are available for anyone who's willing to learn.

Racists will always be among us...cannot let it get to you...otherwise they win, & you lose !

 

well, I am from pakistan and I have been here all my life so I know what you mean... it sucks

 

Hey me too, I was born here but that's where my parents are from. I know exactly what you're all talking about too, I live in Loganville, Georgia the most redneck infested place in the world. But truthfully they can all lick my brown ***.

 

Move 2 Toronto my friend ... @ least come 4 a visit ... if u do ... let's hook up ... I'll show u around ... btw .. I'm Korean ... we are our worst enemies ...

 

I respect what you have to say and you have a valid point, but what exactly does what you had to say have to do with the 5th Gen Maxima?????
If you need to vent about something like this, post in the off-topic forum. That is what it is there for.

 

sucks

it's all good tho.... just smoke them on the road

 

Well I would except for the fact that I got an auto-crappy 2k1 thats bone stock except for a K&N drop-in, but hey we all know it's good for 20FWHP

 

i use to think us asians get made fun of the most... in high school people would bow to me using the little chinese eyes and what not, ****ed me off. bottom line, racist eat momma's a$$.

 

I have to many examples to even mention by the why I'm black it sucks but it's something we have to deal with

 

Yeah, I (a whitey) use to date and Indian woman for two years, she would always take heat if I wasn't around breakin' noses or something. I never got that, she was very beautiful, unlike most Indian girls I know, so I don't know why she was picked on. My father is also racist towards blacks, but he married a Latino woman (my mom). I could never figure it out...

 

racist suck a$$ bottom line... raised wrong. all you haters out there... bite me.

 

Im Korean too....come to MD/VA and ull see how much **** goes on in here...people beef wid each other alot..and people are always fighting

 

First off- I'm really lucky that my parents raised me to be totally non-racist- I was really surprised a few years ago when a co-worker gave me a challenge. As most of you know, I've been in the car-parts business for quite some time, the challenge was to wait on a person of a different race without ever noticing, profiling, or registering that person's race. Even with my benevolent upbringing, I found that I had been judging people without ever even knowing it. I struggled with this for some time, one day I had the good fortune to wait on a guy that was really cool & nice, I really liked him, I realized hours later that he was a really big, imposing black guy. As a small, un-assuming white guy, I was really glad that that I had the opportunity to meet this fine person, and accept and be accepted by him. I learned a good lesson that day, if you accept the other guy with an open mind, chances are, you will both benifit!

Wow...this is a great forum! I am east-indian and a proud owner of a 2001 Maxima SE Anniversary Editiion! Whew! I'm glad I got that out!

 

Racists were just brought up in the wrong way. They should learn to accept everything just the way it is. For all those who are having racist problems, then they should move to Hawaii. It's such a big melting pot that when you grow up, you're just exposed to it all the time and you take it for granted. Just like I take the beach for granted. I live 7 minutes from the beach and go maybe once a year....I know, you're like, you live in Hawaii for crying out loud, but how many times do you go to the "famous thing" in your town/city? Whites, blacks, yellows, purples, reds...aw, who cares, just live in peace and harmony.

 

I felt so at home in Hawaii last year, it was just so laid back. There really wasn't any racial tensions, but then again I don't live there so I can't be sure. I'm Chinese and like someone said earlier sometimes I think Asians now get the most negative comments. I used to get so much cr*p that I really wanted to just move to Asia and be surrounded by my own people to get rid of the stress I got sometimes.

But Asians are also the haters. My best friend is also Chinese (from Burma) and has a White boyfriend and her parents actually beat her for having one...it's a real shame. One day she came with a broken lip to school because her dad had hit her in the car ride to school. Hopefully someday in the future everyone will be like how the .org members are, accepting of each other. But looking at the rest of the world it won't be anytime soon

 

I mean even Hawaii has its bad places, but it's in an outlying area, so you shouldn't be too worried. I'm Chinese, Japanese, Hawaiian (which is actually the minority, believe it or not) and German, so I'm asian too. Asians are the haters sometimes, cause they are so overly critical when it comes to things...execially old Asian women, not to mention nosey, but that's beside the point. A really close friend of mine is Korean and her parents wouldn't approve of her having a white boyfriend either. She has since broken up with him but my girlfriend is half white, part Filipino, and part Hawaiian, but she pulls more of the white side. My parents are cool with it and hers are too. My side of the island (O`ahu) is seeing more of an influx of white people now cause of the military, but it's still full of asians. Kind of like how San Fran is becoming Little Moscow again. But you learn to live with being around different kinds of people. What you said is totally true though. I just hope one day we can be happy with whomever is around.

 

i think that the most racist people are here in the south, i live in oklahoma, this is probably an ignorant statement, but this is from my own observations. i have friends and relatives that live in indiana, iowa, nyc, michigan, etc. and they dont go through the crap that my family and i go through here. it ****es me off when someone says crap like, "go back to your own country" and, "why do you people come here and steal our jobs?". i hate it the most when someone says it to my dad, he has worked his a$$ off for the past 30 years to get where he is, he went to college in the states, held a steady job for 20 years, and now owns a hotel, and people have the damn nerve to say **** to my dad, it really makes me MAD! sorry guys, i just had to vent, btw, i'm indian(parents from india), i was born in toronto, canada, i moved to the states when i was 16, i'm 19 now.

 

I live in Arkansas, and this state is extremely plagued with racism. By the way, I am caucasian and some of the S**T that goes on is entirely uncalled for. I pity the uneducated rednecks throughout the state where I live.

 

you're prejudiced against racists!

I'm racist...I hate Indians...they should go back to their country!

OK, not to start anything, but I really disliked going to Canada. Once I got there, it was OKish, but traveling there sucked. Twice to Montreal, and once to Quebec City, and every time I had trouble getting there, either with the airlines losing my luggage to Customs just getting on my jock about my reason to come to Canada. (Yes, it's business. But I'm not stealing a Canadian's job, so why charge me $100CN for the privilege of possessing a work permit I don't need? I have a job already!) Most Canadians I've met are decent Joes; they have the same motivations and desires as anyone I've met. I've also met a fair share of French-Canadian snobs, so hipped on their province (? Quebec isn't a country yet, is it?) that they utterly refused to even attempt English in conversations with me. WTF is that about? I know enough French to get by, but I can't have any kind of deep conversation in it, but these folk who know both languages can't show the common courtesy to switch to English when necessary? Racism, and nationalism, is a conditioned reflex. You learn it from others, who learned it from others. But part of that also is learned in first impressions, and a bad first impression can sully future relations. It leads to "I hate ________" just because a _________ was rude to you once. (Fill in the blank with any minority.) I say we need to keep ****ing each other until we're all the same color.

Quebec is still a part of Canada ...

Yes .. they are a little tite in the *** s/t's ... (sorry Bert & all you other French Canadians) ... no one can figure them out
