Probably nothing will happen of this. Sadly, Asians are pretty much the only minority group that comics and jerkoffs can make insensitive comments about....with relative impunity.

This Shaq incident may piss some Asian people off but Asians, on the average, reject political controversy and focus on pursuing the American Dream. It seems they care less about what people call them as long as they get the opportunity to compete and build assets. That's why, on some income/education indices, they outrank native born whites.

I know, my girlfriend's family is first generation Cambodian. Came to the US penniless and got on welfare. After 8 years, they own over a dozen apartment buildings and the whole clan now lives in a complex in Brentwood. I'm sure not all Asians follow this trajectory, but you get the point.... different strokes for different folks.

Hell, I can understand that better than when he murders English!

This was a funny article. It's obvious that there might be cause for the Asian poplulation to take offense but did the author really have to end the article saying...

But I am calling Shaq out. Come on down to Chinatown, Shaq. You disrespect Asian Pacific America, and we will break you down.

shaq would step on them.

I think Shaq is jealous of the pt. averages of Yao-Ming.

Perhaps when you and the Lakers come to Houston on Jan. 17 to play Yao Ming and the Rockets, the APA community will have a press conference waiting for you. Perhaps there, before a national audience, you can apologize to Yao Ming, forfeit your NAACP award, and implore young people not to follow your example.

i can picture the press conference now. dripping in sweat and cross-eyed as usual, shaq speaks... "all i have to say is that i rose to the occasion to accept this award. i gave a 110%. hi mom"

like anything's going to come of this

That would not suprise me about Shaq! But I just hate LA

Go JAIL GANSTERS! The Blazers are gonna roll now that the rhodent Stoudimire is benched by Cheeks! Our players might be stoners, drunks, wife beaters, and felon's, but were no racist!

TurboTrucker · 01-12-2003, 12:13 AM

No what he said is not racist. Making fun of people is not racist. It's just bad PR.

Believing that other races don't deserve the same rights as you, that's an example of racism.

FATPad · 01-12-2003, 12:36 AM

That article did make one good point. If a white player made monkey sounds at a black player the white player would have been fined, suspended and roasted in the media as a racist. His team, his manager, his family would have all been crucified as supporters of a racist.

JimW · 01-12-2003, 12:36 AM

fuck Shaq and the Lakers.

If the Lakers do sneak into the playoffs this year, Mark Cuban to hire someone to drop hammer on his foot.

can someone explain to my why it seems whenever there is some kind if really nasty porn ( bukakee, heavy bondage ect ) there always seems to be an asain involved ?

This article definitely brings up some good points. As mentioned earlier, if it was a white player against a black player, all hell would break loose. This is what I hate about the whole move to equality - includes feminism and racism etc. - the scales have tipped in the opposite direction.

I was agreeing with the article until the end where he mentioned how the Asians in chinatown would "break him down." Which I think directly implies that Asians are better than him and also implies they would take justice into their own hands.

Apart from that, this was supposed to be a news article. Last I checked, news articles were never meant to contain personal opinions.

I wouldn't be surprised if the author of the article was racist to at least some degree as well.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not condoning what Shaq said by any stretch of the imagination. I just don't think the author was entirely in the right either.

My 2 cents.
