Chew, First of all I look at you, as well as everyone in this group, as a Grand Prix enthusiast, not as an ethnicity. Frankly I don't think anyone cares what anyone else's ethnicity is or isn't in Grandprix.net. And what I am about to say may offend you but I hope it does not.
The mayor of Philadelphia was quoted as saying the "brothers and sisters are in charge". He was refering to the gov't of Philly. He doesn't consider himself the mayor of Philly, he considers himself Philly's "black" mayor. There is the Black Entertainment Television, United Negro College Fund, National Association for the advancement of Colored People(NAACP), National Association of Black Journalists(NABJ), National Black Media Coalition(NBMC), National Black Nurses Association(NBNA), And the list goes on and on. White people have no "white" organizations. If there was it would be called racsist. I'm not saying that I wish there were white organizations. Groups and organizations that center around the color of your skin, as well as religion, serve to seperate people and not unite them. Meanwhile, whites are demonized in America. White people are called white devils. White women are called white bitches and white trash. Men are called "white boys" and crackers. Whites have no rhythm, can't dance, are portrayed as bumbling idiots on tv while black people are called "proud black man",and "strong black woman". White people actually apologize for being "so white". What is going on in America is a huge double standard, perpetuated by the people that would have you believe that they want racial equality. Beware the race rights activists. If the truth were known by all, then they would be out of a job. The truth is that differences in skin color have never been less of a factor in determining the success of individuals in America than ever before. This is the truth that we must teach our children. If you work hard at your dream, you can make it happen.
People say some dumb things. Stupidity has no color or religion. America has this freedom of speech thing. You are allowed to have opinions. Many opinions are offensive and would be best left unsaid but as long as people have mouths, there will be opinions. Opinions are not in themselves dangerous. They open discussion and debate. I can go on but this is getting long. You can probobly tell that I have strong feelings about this topic, but my main point here is you're not an Asian Grand Prix enthusiast, you are a Grand Prix enthusist. So am I and so are 1600 others in this group. We are united, not by our race but by our common interests. Take care my friend.
