I don't think being a minority makes you a victim of
anything except numbers. The only things I can think of that are
truly discriminatory are things like the United Negro College Fund,
Jet Magazine, Black Entertainment Television, and Miss Black
America. Try to have things like the United Caucasian College Fund, Cloud Magazine, White Entertainment Television, or Miss White America; and s! ee what happens...Jesse Jackson will be knocking

Pro wrestling is not fake, cause Stone Cold said so.
I completely agree with that. Especially if you are going to run a store, learn to speak english. It is still the majority language, and I find ti frustrating to deliver to umpteen convenience stores only to find out they can't talk properly. Don't care of your background, if you're proud of it great. But learn to talk properly.
