wow that's a lousy story Teh_Bandwagoner. Good on you guys for mouthing back... it would have been easy to just let it go.

I'm glad you shared your story here. I always think it's weird when so many people argue that racism (sexism, homophobia) doesn't really exist or isn't a problem. Sure people might not be getting lynched the way were down South 110 years ago, but there's still problems. At the end of the day, to many people, no matter what you accomplish you will not be more than your skin colour, your gender, your religion, your sexual identity, whatever.... Whatever bigots want to hate in you, they'll find it...

Don't let it ruin your week-end dude.... that's exactly what they want!
