:D Glad to know it's not just white folk showing their asses in foreign countries.

Although in his defense, Hollywood has taught us that all Asians are black belts just waiting to take on rooms full of fighters. Especially old Asian men.

This is why you are from Tennessee.

Actually one of the black men I know who lived in Korea was born in Africa and taught martial arts in Korea. How's that for confused stereotypes?

Its pretty interesting. Black man goes to Japan, loves it so much and the people treat him great when he was a tourist. However, when he decided to move there and teach English, people started treating him differently, asking questions like "oh when are you going home". Etc etc, not allowing any room for promotion etc.

I see you using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.

LOL There's a name for places like that. It's called "everywhere".

Welcome to the south! Now go home.

No, he's one of the ones that complained to me about the racism. In fact the movie Aznanarchy99 described in the post just after yours seems to describe his experience to a "T" (but Korea instead of Japan).

And yes you apparently don't know the meaning of the word niggardly. It has nothing to do with race.

Apparently this idiot was in a foreign country and didn't know the language very well and flew off the handle like an ignorant jackass when he heard the old dude pronounce the word "neaga".

Naega = I, me

If you are going to visit or live in a country for an extended period of time have the fucking common courtesy to learn the god damn language spoken there for fucks sake. The same rule applies to people coming over to the US.

You don't even have to know the language... just the understanding that you are in a foreign country where very few people speak fluent English without accents.

Very surprised the dude did not get his ass handed to him.
