Guest mz_imperfect Posted March 22, 2009 Share Posted March 22, 2009 Unfortunately, this type of behavior isn't illegal but it does show the shallow and narrow-minded people that are still left in this country. And in CA of all places? I'm surprised. I'm sorry to hear about this and I sympathize with you as an Asian American myself. How disrespectful and pathetic to still see people living in such a manner. It's disgusting and immature. But honestly, if they were disgusted, you should have stayed there and showed them how people should behave and act, but I can see why the you wanted to get the hell out of there. No one should take that kind of service and I wouldn't be surprised to see them go out of business soon. But I'm not sure if there's anything you can do. By posting it on here already, you are taking tons of potential customers away from their restaurant. Feel better that at least you are able to do that much.

angelarr Posted March 22, 2009 Share Posted March 22, 2009 ^ Yes, don't let them think they've won you over Always ignore And if in extreme cases, give them the finger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Flicksityy Posted March 22, 2009 Share Posted March 22, 2009 I tend to look for their flaws physically that may or may not resemble the 'racist' remark. If it doesn't, I just tell them to make themselves feel ugly, which of course, would not involve me being hypocritical. I tend to be a very mean, arrogant person when it comes to cracking.

Guest SHINEjaejoong Posted March 22, 2009 Share Posted March 22, 2009 I chicken out honestly. I dont want to stir some problems for myself. But here, I dont get insulted by my race. My friend who comes from Congo gets like "insulted" about her race. I really wanna help her out but I dont know what to do. Luckily she knows how to stand up for herself. Later we just talk sh!t about them behind their backs. Seems like its the only thing I can do! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Aasya Posted March 25, 2009 Share Posted March 25, 2009 I always thought if someone was racist I'd totally flip out on them. But yeah a couple years ago friend and I were at the library, to take a test, and this guy approached us. And he was all like speaking loudly to us like about all this crap about Iran, taxis, and women getting killed for riding taxis. And saying like we're opressed and went on rambling about Arabs. WTH. I know. And I totally clammed up and didn't say anything, and got all red and felt like I wanted to cry. Then my test instructor came and told him to go away. So yeah. I know worse that has happened to others, but I was young so it has stuck to me. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest polka_dotts Posted March 26, 2009 Share Posted March 26, 2009 I tell my older sister. LOL. She's more outspoken and educated and knows the correct way to approach someone and make them look like a damn fool when it comes to this race business. : D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miki_miki Posted March 27, 2009 Share Posted March 27, 2009 I would see them right in their eyes and make sure he knows that I hate him then walk out. There's no to speak to that kind of person. They won't listen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest bbaumgul Posted March 28, 2009 Share Posted March 28, 2009 This is totally what I'd do: racist: "racist remark" Then most of the times they just walk away I: "Excuse me? No don't run away, come back here." Really loud "Can you repeat that louder?" Make a scene so everyone hears If he/she repeats it, depending on if I'm in a good mood, I would either go "Okay, just wanted to make sure it wasn't just me imagining you being a d***head." in a very innocent way x) or if I was really angry at the time, I'd punch his/her face before they finish off what they were originally going to say. "I'm sorry could you say that again?" HAHA. Yes. I react to racism with extreme actions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Painterlyy Posted March 28, 2009 Share Posted March 28, 2009 I try my best to ignore them. But if it's an insult especially pointed towards me, my family, or my friends, then it gets personal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest LoveJiyong Posted March 30, 2009 Share Posted March 30, 2009 i don't usually say anything mean back but i'll pretend it's a compliment & say stuff that doesn't even go w/ what they just said like "why thank you. i wasn't aware of my attractiveness." Or "is that a compliment? thank you so much." "it takes one to know one" etc. But one that i hate the most is when others say "you freaken richard simmons go back to your country." I always like telling them & smiling "I AM in my country. I'm a US citizen." Or if they call me "Yellow skinned or w/e" i always tell them "hey! that's my favorite color. Or just because i'm smart doesn't make me that BRIGHT." LoL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest yooboo710 Posted March 31, 2009 Share Posted March 31, 2009 Well, let's just face the reality that all of us are different in many ways... One thing is acceptable in the eye of his/her same race, country or continent which is not acceptable to the eye of the other race... I don't wanna waste my precious time with them... coz I am what I am... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
