So I'm out with my friends at the local In n' Out

[oblizue]

about to buy some burgers. (damn good burgers)

Two of my friends happen to be of Persian descent (Iranian) and while we're waiting in line we hear "Terrorists, mommy, terrorists!"

A little surprised we all turn around and see this little white girl holding hands with a very embarrased looking mom.

So we all chuckle a bit, but being "different" can still be awkward at times.

Ah well, kids will be kids right? :beer:

 

[pyonir]

Did the mother at least correct her?

 

[Schadenfroh]

it has gotten that bad

some people that are not even arabs are getting looked at as terrorist

 

[Brymo]

wow... ya i hope she would correct her...

Well, not in our presence. More of just "shhh!"

 

[Zim Hosein]

Who will then grow into adults w/ the same feelings if not corrected

 

[xyion]

In n Out is so good. Send me a sticker and a hat.

 

[Amused]

You're teens, right? Technically you ARE terrorists.

You should have seen me today.

I have a beard, I am running around with my computer and I am taking photo's of locations where I am visiting (mostly starbucks, borders and stuff - tmobile hotspot locatoins) for evaluations (contract job with a company)

Needless to say I guess ppl might have thought your fav. cup of joe was next for a terrorist attack.

 

[oblizue]

Heh, naw, we're college kids, but that's close enough I guess.

"...you kill our women and children, and DARE to call us terrorists!!?..."

Where was that particular quote from? (Hint: Movie with Arny)

Pretty sure, unless counter-strike is another al-qaeda plot to train would-be terrorists. :Q

 

[ElFenix]

you're posting from in n' out?

 

[Conky]

Isn't it funny how only children can see the truth?

Funny how you note the little girl's race even though it has no pertinence whatsoever.

Lol, I knew this might come up when I wrote "little white girl".

Only reason I wrote it was because maybe if the little girl was also Iranian, she wouldn't have said it?

Whatever, not like I think white people are terrorists or anything. :beer:

Regardless of race, people can be stupid. It's possible for a fellow Iranian child to call another Iranian a terrorist.
