I also want to know if he was talking about American Indians.

I think with a lot of my otherracial friends, we joke about racism a lot more. Its more of a laugh at matter when your in a group you feel comfortable with. Calling some random black guy the naughty naughty word isn't suggested, and will prolly land you in trouble. However, I think when people are comfortable with themselves, racist behavior is not an issue. Unless you specifically are talking about negative only behavior sparked by racism. Then it just sucks.

I know Native americans take a lot of heat, and I think its just sad. I know we forced ourselves in and took advantage of them, but the Natives taught the ignorant white colonists many lessons. So with that I will always treat a native just as well - if not with more respect than most others. My bloodline sets me at either an 1/8 or 1/4 Native american, but you could never tell with my German, irish, norwiegen bleeched skin..

People from India are often deiscriminated by for a few reasons . Many Indains come over to America, and some people belive that they get too spoiled by the government. free college, tax free living for 7 years or whatev. Honestly I do not know all the facts. I am not too against this, as I feel for the people who up and left thier country to come here. I guess this is a whole nother debate in its own. I am just stating that this causes some hatred among people, and instead or responsibly taking it to thier represntatives, they take it out on the people themselves. Ignorance... ugh. (The above is true for people of all ethnic groups)

Please don't take anything i said here the wrong way I am hopying it was a constructive post. [edit] Being in the programming industry, I hear a lot of the third paragraph events happending as Indians are often attracted to the IT fields. Leaving some others feeling... screwed. I persoanlly don't aggree with that outlook and really think that we should be beyond that.

I would like to say this is not a typecast fact, and is only factualy to my personal experiences.
