Worse thing a black person has ever done to me was back in junior high when a black kid "jumped" me with 2 of his cousins just because I wasn't black. I was new at school and the kid kept making racist references towards latinos on on our way home on the school bus. He made sure I heard it too, and I was the only latino on the bus but I stayed quiet. When we got off the bus(we got off at the same stop along with like 15 other kids) he snuck behind me and hit me with a book in the back of the head so I turned around and started trying to break my fists in his mouth. Funny thing is I had a blade in my pocket but it started off as a one on one fight and I was winning so I didn't pull it out. Then I got jumped by 2 other kids who I found out was his cousins, but while I was being jumped I grabbed the kid that started it all and gave him a permanent smile from lip to ear.  Once they saw blood they got scared so it all ended. I served 3 months in juvie for that. Bastards. This happened in racist ass Jacksonville Florida.
The worse thing a white person has ever did to me was funny. I was getting my driving permit and I had to fill out some paper. This white lady said before I started "I noticed that you're latino, so make sure you only put down one of your last names". I wanted to say something, but I was on duty and in uniform (ARMY. And yeah... I'm from NYC and never needed to drive before that). All I did was laugh. This was up in racist ass Water Town New York.
