My friend recently went to Kings Island. While standing in line there were 2 young children of middle eastern descent in front of him. Behind him was a white couple with a small child of about 6. The couple behind him were yelling at the two kids telling them to go back to their own country. They did not belong here. They even had their young child flip them the bird. How irresponsible and narrow minded can some people be? Any way I asked my friend why he did not say something to the couple. He said he didn't want trouble. I don't think I could have held my tongue. Could you?

I am too old to keep quiet. Little old ladies can say anything, so would have to tell them what I thought. Trouble or no trouble. Just bring me cookies when I am in jail.

Every one should speak out against racism. Having said that, I will add that those who have settled in other countries should also remain loyal to those countries and adopt their lives accordingly. If they cannot, they should better return to their own countries, before some one else tell them to do so.

I speak out against it whenever I see or hear it because I don't want to see or hear it in my life.
I can understand the person's not wanting some lunatic to punch his face, but I think I'd have a hard time not saying anything to someone who was being rotten to young children.

He should have gone to a worker there for assistance and demanded they throw the people out. Those people are probably one step from physically harming others they don't like.
I have stood up againt blacks for threatening or speaking out against white people. However, never speak out if you feel the person or people could harm you. For instance, if you were in a deserted place and no one could come to your aid.

No, I would have said something, don;t harass the kids I'll call the cops. Racism is like a cancerous disease ! Racism shows a lack of Christianity, lack of humanity and a lack of love. Racism shows a lack of etiquette and a definite lack of intelligence

That is totally disgusting! So no one in the line said anything to these vile people? They are obviously ill-educated, brainless idiots. You need a licence to have a dog but not a child.
