One way you can really tick me off is to be blatantly racist in my face.
Let me get things strait, before I head into my little rant. I don’t mind if one uses racism in a humorous way, as some stand up comics do. For one: it’s funny. And two: It shows us how ridiculous racism and stereotyping is.
But that’s not the kind of racism I’m about to rant about.
When someone tells me something along the lines “I fucking everyone of those Mexicans, They are all border hoppers and they are ruing our country”, I become immediately on edge. A statement like that is not only false, but it’s completely unreasonable to think that in that manner.
I usually reply to statements like that with “Because all Mexicans are the same, right?”. That usually takes them off guard.
I hate it when people assume some one is a bad person because of their race. It’s not that at all. They are a bad person because they are a bad person. Being White, Black, Hispanic, Asian, etc doesn’t make you different from other people besides the fact that you have different physical features. Inside all humans consist the same brain, the same deep rooted human nature. And when it comes right down to it, what makes someone a good citizen, a criminal, a decent person, an arrogant pig, is how the individual chooses to rule their lives, not their race.
Peace.
