here i am, minding my own business, living in a loft with 7 other foreigners, 5 of them from europe. 2 of them are american, one black the other white. so when things get stolen in the damn place, guess who they freaking blame? me, the asian. why? why? freaking tell me why? i do what i can to stay out of their way, so they can do their lofty loft things, and i've been great with paying rent on time, cleaning whatever, and here we go, blame the asian dude.

Ignore hopflower or whatever her name is but not everyone blames the asians. I know that I don't or any of my family does. Maybe they were blaming you because you were the ONLY asian on the loft. I bet if there were fifty of you on the loft they would blame someone else. I'm surprsed that they didn't blame the black person or the white person...

You know, if you stopped avoiding them, which it sounds like you are doing ("i do what i can to stay out of their way, so they can do their lofty loft things") they might take a liking to you, or at least some of them would befriend you, and when something came up, they either A) wouldn't blame you; B) you would have someone to back up your story; or C) still keep blaming you becuse you are (possibly) a good scapegoat. They might blame you because they don't like you as they may think that your avoiding them is because you are disdainful of them. But DO NOT make them blaming you a race thing. Just because they blame you does not mean that they are bigots, it may just mean that they don't like you. And if trying to befriend them doesn't work, a move might be in order.

They blame you not because you are Asian but because you are an easy target for blame. They make you their scapegoat. I guess you are a shy, gentle, quiet, and rather passive guy. Nothing wrong with these parsonalities, but the next time they blame you, be strong! Be aggressive! Blame them for blaming you! Make some noise! As the saying goes, the squeaky wheel gets the grease!

That's a first for me. Maybe its your actually attitude or past history. They never trusted you to begin with and now the true colors are arising.
They might be blaming you because in their minds they thought that no one ever suspects the Asian guy so it MUST be you.
Sorry. Hope your living situation drastically improves - or moves.

you're making the declare that united states of america of america woudln't prevail without whites. it quite is probable genuine. yet, i think of the greater significant question is might the Europeans have been as helpful as they have been without exploiting all those races that are allegedly blaming whites for their issues. For all those asserting why do they arrive to OUR usa. it quite is in simple terms your usa because of the fact the your ancestors slaughtered a million community human beings and stole the different a million/2 from the Mexicans.

I have no problem with Asian people. Actually like them a lot. I am white and I live in an Asian country for a couple of years. I dont think they are theives although I dont know every one of them. I try not to judge people based on race/color, that kind of crap. Just call them dirty racist and pee on their bed.

I've never heard of anyone who felt that way about Asians, but move out if it's a problem, then they'll see if their thief is still about

maybe because asians are known for being tight with their money! maybe they think ur too tight to spend money to buy things so they think u steal things! and from past experiences with asian friends, i found out that alot of asians ARE tight with their money! sorry, maybe its just the asians i met that are tight! well anyway, good luck bro!

All I can say is that you haven't proved the "always" part of your question. Personally, my stereotypical view of Asians is that they're brainy and hard-working. Looks like your mileage may vary.

All "people" don't always blame Asians. I can't answer for the one who blamed you. If I don't blame all Asians, please don't blame me! I think it'd be best to find out from them why they blame you.
