Racism is dead in America. I dunno what these damn mongols are getting so uppity about.

I think that opinion in the United States is decidedly different from the rest of the world because we have a free press -- by free, I mean a virgorously presented right wing point of view on the air and available to all.- Ned -
Exactly.The number of European-Americans who have had their last names changed/mangled at immigration is legion.

I'd rather try and pronounce Wu, Hu, Huang, or Wong than my Sicilian friend's last name of Digiambatista.
Those darn Europeans with their hard-to-pronounce names!

No.Originally posted by Ben Kenobi View PostI came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt.

Yeah it is not like the name is Nuguyen which is pronounced "New When".Originally posted by Rufus T. Firefly View PostYeah, count me as another who's family name got changed at immigration (although I think it was made more pronounceable, so I guess that's something).
What's funniest about the piece, though, is she's picking on Chinese names. You know, names like Ang, Ho, Zhang (and Ko, the guy she's talking to). Real stumpers, not like venerable American names like Taliaferro (pronounced "Toliver," dontcha know).
What a moran.

Did you miss the part where I said my family were immigrants too, that they mangled our name, and that people still get it wrong all the time?I'm impressed by your Christian-like hospitality of people who are different from you.
Jesus Christ would be soooo proud of you.
Thanks for playing the racist card.
It's called gratitude. You come to a new country for a new opportunity. Sure, it's not going to be the same as back home, but that's a risk you take coming over.
I have no problem with immigrants, just the opposite. I think everyone who wants to come should be able to come.Scouse Git (2) La Fayette Adam Smith Solomwi and Loinburger will not be forgotten.
