Racism and surfing.

Postby surfvida » Tue May 23, 2006 1:22 pm

Last week in the water I saw my friend and some guy go at it. The guy droped in on my friend and almost made him crack up on the reef. My friend said "watch out , I almost hit the reef" the guy ( Japanese guy) flipped out, he was like "fuck you haole!" going up to him saying all kinds of stuff, then my friends cousin came over. His cousin is 6'4'' Portuguese, Hawaiian. And asked him whats the problem. The Japanese guy said "this haole guys starting problems with me!" The cousin said " that's my cousin, and he is Hawaiian" He went from being all angry to being all sorry.

The cousin was in the wrong though because he got racist too. The cousin was like "what if someone got racist with you?" then he said "you fucking jap!" then he was like "what japs did for Hawaii?" "you guys bomb pearl harbor, migrate to Hawaii taking the land away from Hawaiians, what makes you better then a haole?" then he said "go home jap".

I know it sounds bad on his part but he explained to me afterwards that he wasnt being racist, but he wanted to show the Japanese guy how he looked. He said he just wanted to reflect that guy, to show him racism is wrong. But also now days lots of local people I know don't like Japanese because they are always migrating to Hawaii and buying up homes and local businesses.

Which is sad, yes it's true but it's no reason to hate anyone. And people from all over are migrating and buying businesses. But anyways I just posted this just to say that racism is wrong, and life is too short to hate anyone. And if you try to dish it out, you may get it dished out to you harder. It's just wrong, it shows bad morality.

Try to go to Japan and buy a business or a home. You need to have a Japanese national to act as a guarantor to be able to secure a loan.

Here are some photos to prove the Japanese are far from tolerant themselves.

I feel lucky to live in such a harmonious place like Hawaii.

European Union is not racist. We accept all peoples who we accept. We are very tolerant, more than the US. For proof of our tolerance just look at my natty dreads. One love to all.

I really dislike racism. I have gotten in several fights and arguments over racism. I live in The South, and its pretty bad. There are some exceptions of coarse. The exceptions are mostly surfers, skaters, punks, and the like. A lot of times, I feel like its me against the world. My family have said racist remarks, my friends, peers, coworkers, strangers, jsut about everyone I meet. I want to move out of here so bad to get away from all the hate. I know racism is everywhere, but its even worse when you live in a city where not long ago there were race riots, and there's rednecks still waving the Confederate flag.

Goober or how about GÜbers.

BTW, 808 is the area code for Hawaii. What's the area code in Virginia?
