Just because KK isn't all woohoo Asian/Dutch pride (which, by the way, Michelle B isn't either) doesn't mean she's not proud of who she is or where her roots come from. She has never denounced her heritage, just said that she doesn't believe that sort of thing matters, and it shouldn't.
I was in Staples today picking up a new DVD burner because I broke my other one last week and I asked the guy helping me if he knew where the nearby Starbucks was. His answer? "Starbucks? Nah, don't go there. I went in there one day and all they did was give me strange looks." My answer? I gave him a strange look. Then I asked him why. You want to know what he said? He tried to tell me that they gave him strange looks because he was black. I was taken aback that he would even joke about something like that. Sure, he was black, but I've been in plenty of Starbucks with plenty different ethnicities around me and have never seen anyone treated as any different of a customer because of their color. And I was right, because then he went on to say that he didn't go in line but rather just sat down at one of their tables and waited for someone to help him or ask why he was there. You can't say anything that wouldn't convince me that's not just someone looking for a reason to pull a racial card.
I believe that's exactly what you're doing here, trying to make an issue and create something out of absolutely nothing. It makes me want to scream at you to sit down and shut up. You're like that annoying kid in class who tries to debate everything the teacher says just because YOU ARE THAT BORED. |
