You're telling me that it is okay to just shut up and ignore that kind of thing? Attitudes like that are why people are allowed to get away with things like this. If my girlfriend was black, would you be okay with russia throwing me in jail for putting my arm around her at an olympic event? Why should this be treated any differently?

wtf?
