People belonging to one culture, simply by being in majority should not ridicule (kidding, joking, and making fun of) people from other cultures. When it is done- day in and day out- at the expense of other because they are a minority, to entertain yourself, it builds up in them a negative psychology towards the society and demands tremendous amount of patience and tolerance on the part of the ridiculed party to control themselves from committing violent and horrible acts such as Virginia Tech Incident, an extreme act of revenge. If you recall there were many other such acts like that in the past, such as the one, where a Ph.D. student shot 5 professors and the one where an employee killed 22 and so on.
While for the sake of the safety of the innocent, such acts should not be condoned in any way, shape or manner, and the strictest law enforcement and community defense is to be brought into play, the root cause must be discouraged also. Understand, not ridicule in a free society.
