I've never heard him talk about 'Latino culture' and how that supposedly causes Latino's to not succeed in society.

I've heard the stereotypical myth of the lazy Mexican. It is bovine excrement. A people who endure an incredibly dangerous trip to the USA, and somehow you think they won't succeed? Maybe you need to learn just how hard working and industrious they are. http://www.latimes.com/nation/immigration/la-fg-enriques-journey-sg-storygallery.html Now you tell me why you think they don't succeed? Oh, first you better find out if they already have. And maybe that is their culture.

Again, I'm not the one making arguments that culture has anything to do with it. Thats you.

Here is a breathtaking step for the slow shift (drift?) out of nearly a thousand years of self-imposed isolation for a country:


The beauty contest winner making Japan look at itself

... In just two years here I have clearly absorbed a lot of the local prejudices about what it means to be "Japanese".

My confusion lasts only until Ariana opens her mouth. Suddenly everything about her shouts out that she is Japanese, from the soft lilting tone of her voice, to her delicate hand gestures and demure expression.

Well of course she is. Ariana was born in Japan and has lived here all her life...

... In Japan the reaction to Ariana's victory has been oddly muted...



Times change and culture evolves out of xenophobia only slowly in some places...

All in our only one world,
Martin

This is just crazy.
Are the "White" race more beatiful than others?

btw Are muslims a race? They sure are treated like some inferior race in Europe.

Janne most Asians don't like there eyes . There always trying to look like westerners . Hair colour is another thing they hate too .

So to answer your question , apparently the Japanese think we are . And no Muslims are not a race any more than all catholic's are Italian

And no Muslims are not a race

At very least muslims are treated in the very same way in Europe as black people in America.
We met some marrocan guys in Casablanca.
They looked like muslims usually do.
But one guy and a girl was more darker then the others.
It turned out that they where berbers, a nomadic people that lives in Northern Africa.

Here is a berber.
Lorine Zineb Nora "Loreen" Talhaoui, born October 16, 1983 in Ã…kersberga, is a Swedish singer, songwriter, voice actress, TV host and television producer. She won the Eurovision Song Contest 2012 with the song "Euphoria".

Janne most Asians don't like there eyes . There always trying to look like westerners . Hair colour is another thing they hate too .

There's a certain irony in that. White westerners spending a fortune on tanning products to look brown, and brown orientals spending a fortune on paling products to look white.
Maybe we should just swap countries.

Very good idea:)
We white people like warmer climate...

mmm She's a good sort . typical libra , Singers , actors , songwriters , tv host s and producers .
One of the most likely places you find Libra's is the entertainment industry .

Boy i chose wrong then . And to think i've even been told by professional singers i have a good voice , wonder if that's why my mates never ever told me to shut up when i'd start singing in the car when we where out cruising smashed of me face .:)
And i'm not joking i've been told a few times i can sing .

I'm also a Libra:)
Astrology is yet another way to categorize people just the very same way to categorize people by race.
And the entertainment industry has a very high gay factor.
Does that means that Libra's are more gay then others?
:)

Very good idea:)

Not me, it's 23 Celsius here at the moment, that's too warm, i'd be happier in your country.

Well you haven't been here in the Winter.
It's both cold and dark.
Sweden −53.0 °C (−63.4 °F) Malgovik, Västerbotten County 1941-12-13 Thats Lucia day...
Weird though that I never heard africans and muslims complaining about our climate.
The other day a kid from the middle east was running on the yard only dressed in his underwears when it was about 9 degrees C. Brrr.

Cheeky bugger speak for your self . Just because i know a few gays as friends NO BLOODY WAY AM I GAY . hehehehe

LOL
I was just saying that the entertainment industry has a high gay factor.
For instance Eurovision Song Contest that now Australia is part of.
Both male and female gays:)

I have met one gay guy who was the godfather of a very good friend of mine.
Once he asked me if I wanted to have Children. He wanted to.
btw. He rent an appartement in Southern Manhattan in september 2001.
Lots of dust to Clean....

They over police Latino neighborhoods too, but I don't see any statistics indicating Caucasians (Latinos) are being shot out of proportion.

Yeah, but there isn't some idiotic racist notion about Latino culture.

WOuld you care to learn some of the slurs against HIspanics/Latinos? (Actually, I don't think I could bring myself to publish them here. Try https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xJlXcwo-Ow8), an absolutely awful derivative of an ok sci-fi show. In this "last" episode of the watered-down version issued 1.5 years later, they attempt to includes racism against Hispanics as part of a larger overall story. Think 30 years is ancient history?)

WHy do you think, now, we have people demanding we have a fence along the entire US/Mexico border?[/url]

I'm not saying that Americans aren't racist against Latino's as well. I'm saying that the way racism against Latino's manifests itself does so in a way that doesn't make cops more inclined to shoot them without cause.

Case in point, I've heard Gary here complain about 'Black culture' and how it supposedly prevents them from succeeding in society and how it somehow makes them look more suspicious to cops so they get shot sooner. I've never heard him talk about 'Latino culture' and how that supposedly causes Latino's to not succeed in society.

Exactly. You don't hear people calling Latino's "thugs".

I'd be interested to hear what exactly Gary thinks it is about black "culture" that makes them so "inferior".

I'm sorry, Es, but we do hear a term like that here. Have you not heard of the gang "Latin Kings" for example?

Somehow I think Mara Salvatrucha are thugs and in need of capital punishment. And Sarge, I think she lives too far Norte to understand.

I don't know who Mara is off the top of my head.
While you may be right about Es being too far north (and, previously, across the pond), I do believe Es ... and Michel ... can be helped to see a big picture and they can help us. Often, we are talking past each other.

ES: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PneRfRYysPA. In this video, Latin Kings are referred to as thugs. (Warning to Es and all, profanity in the video.)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oTXq-Eqsd6w (I have not watched all of this fuller length video.)

Gary: do either of the following 2 videos at all have to do with the culture you are talking about?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kGqlrVmVULc

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eLqpC_nrzEs

Note to all: my posting of these videos should in no way be construed as condoning either the views of those in the videos nor those against them. I post them for Es, Michel and others to get a better idea of the complex situation here in the USA.

A few minutes ago 2 kids aged 5 or 6 from a muslim country was playing on the yard. They was angry at some other kids.
Guess what they did?
They pointed at them with the middle finger and shouted "F**K YOU" in English.
I say the same to US Movie industry!
Only 30 years ago we didn't have obscene swear words!!!
