I watched a bit of this earlier and was intrigued enough to watch the other racism one with the kids spraypainting the car. Very interesting stuff, reminds me of my 200-level psychology classes where we learned about stereotypes and how they are normal and can exist without the "racism" often associated with them.
When the white kids wrecked that car in the park, only 1 call was made to 911 (while 2 calls were made about a few blacks innocently taking a nap in their own car because they "about to rob" someone), yet when the black kids were messing with the car in the same way, 10 calls were made to 911.
i would have whipped out my dick in that situation
does he say "god be with you" at the end of the video? hahaha
The saddest part is that it's both the horrendous ignorance, racism and bigotry of much of the public and her very own religion that enslaves her.
Probably, but less aggravating than I expected.

Oh, Boo-Fucking-Hoo.
your opinion in this matter is pretty irrelevant
Well, I see your unwarranted and exaggerated sense of self worth is still in top form.
dude your avatar says 'tattooed white trash' i am pretty sure you are in the group that has no clue what being the victim of discrimination is like, and therefore your opinion on the degrees of how bad it is are completely irrelevant because you don't know what the hell you're talking about
So, you are discriminating against me because of my choice of avatar?
My post was meant to point out how nauseating and ridiculous it was to watch that retarded bimbo start weeping at the end of the video, while her friend, who was actually a Middle-Eastern Muslim, stood by and stared at her awkwardly.
I wasn't impressed by the experiment. The experiment didn't actually teach me anything I didn't know already from personal experience; Public displays of bigotry are repugnant to most people, Some people have the nerve to stand up if they believe otherwise, some do not, some agree in there hearts but are afraid to make it public when the spotlight is on them.
See, I know discrimination because I am a young white Southerner, and I stand up for what I believe whether you think it's right or wrong. I am the most discriminated man in America.

most discriminated man in america is pure hubris and you know it.
now, i'll admit that when i see your post, the first link i get (considering you associate yourself with white trash, and pretty adamantly at that) is that the entire idea of looking into discrimination, although it's done to death, is not something worth crying over.
i agree with you - white girl crying was pretty dumb and reeks of attention seeking tv whoring, and that this particular experiment didn't really do or show anything new. What it does do, however, is provide a concrete example of how bigotry actually is in some parts of the US. While I may have an idea about what things are like there, this doesn't compare to how visceral it is to actually watch this happening and seeing what the reactions are of the people there.
i disagree with 'most discriminated' because you're part of the majority. There is no systemic prejudice you've had to face based on the colour of your skin or the beliefs you hold, in spite of the high horse you climb on to say you have. Having beliefs and holding them in the face of criticism or scorn doesn't make you discriminated against, it makes you genuine. This is a good thing, (provided your beliefs aren't the Scientology type) but claiming victim status because of it is a load of horseshit and you should already know this.
Ok yeah, I can be arrogant sometimes and I admit that was an outrageous thing to say.most discriminated man in america is pure hubris and you know it.
Ironically enough, my avatar is actually a reflection of the prejudice I deal with in my life. Despite the fact that I have a college education, own property, and make a better living than most men my age. People assume I am poor, uneducated, white trash because I hold openly racialist views, don't trust the government, speak with a heavy southern accent, and live on a 20 acre farm a few miles from civilization.There is no systemic prejudice you've had to face based on the colour of your skin or the beliefs you hold, in spite of the high horse you climb on to say you have
I would never cry for anyone's sympathy with a bleeding heart, but something tells me I have more experience with being on both sides of discrimination than anyone else ITT. That said, I have never met or heard of a human being without prejudices.
I have red hair, trumped.

Well you got me there. I might be a racist wierdo, but you are a fucking freak of nature.
Are you using the phrase "enslaved by religion" as simply a pejorative way of saying "having a religion"? I.e. would you say that ALL persons who have a religion are "enslaved" by religion? Or are you trying to say something more specific about the particular character of the religious beliefs of these women or of Muslims in general, i.e. would you say that while she is "enslaved" by her religion, there are others who have religion and yet aren't enslaved by it?Originally Posted by gwahir
This alone is more than enough reason for people to assume you are an ignorant piece of shit.
When you assume etc etc
In the case of self-described racists, I think the assumption is a valid one
look, i'll stop trying to goad you - you're pretty good for white trash
They should expose the double-standard that exists by shooting " 'You're not an American!' ABC Caucasian Experiment " and show how the muslims don't stand up for our rights
While gorefinger does seem like a moron, there's nothing worse than a bunch of bleeding heart douche bags.
both sides of a coin that smells like shit still smell like shit
my admittedly ambiguous point is that extremism on either side is retarded
This is true.
Once when I was in Los Angeles- well, santa monica, I guess, I was waiting for the g/f to get out of work, and I decided to have a nasty lunch at Jack in the Box.
I was enjoying a nice burger when all of the sudden, a nice looking asian woman walked in. I smiled and she smiled back. A nice girl.
Anyhow, there was this bum sitting there with handheld radio coughing and mumbling to himself now and again.
When he caught sight of the woman, he suddenly yelled "OHHHH SHIT, IT'S SOME CHINESE BITCH. BOOYYY DOES SHE SMELL." He kept on like this for about 10 excruciating seconds.
You are right, though, because even I wanted to defend the poor girl.
