Well if they're wearing socks with sandals then I think you're required to call them a tourist.
I'm not sure how you got anything about painting people with the same brush out of any of my posts, my point is that making judgments about the perceptions of people based on sparse second hand knowledge is ridiculous. I don't think this was race motivated, but I can certainly see how that could be the opinion of someone who is in the situation. There's nothing wrong with questioning the validity of that opinion, I just think that coming to concrete conclusions and calling people scum is a bit much.
