An African kid
When I born, I Black,
When I grow up, I Black,
When I go in Sun I Black,
When I scared, I Black,
When I sick, I Black,
And when I die, I still black..
And you White fella,
When you born, you Pink,
When you grow up, you W h i t e,
When you go in Sun, you Red,
When you cold, you Blue,
When you scared, you Yellow,
When you sick, you Green,
And when you die, you Gray..
And you calling me Colored.. ?

Well being the bigger person, the kinder soul, the sensible more intelligent one is fine in theory and all that but when it comes to the crunch it would sure feel good to nail the rotten little turd with a scathing remark.................... It would hey............ How about next time you see him him wait till he approaches you and purse your lips and screw up your nose like there is a foul stench hanging in the air. Don't laugh at him or anything like that, just take a pointedly obvious step back from him and say something like "eeeeeeeew gross, how come they let you out??? I though you were still in jail !!!" hehehehehe....... That should shut him up for quite a while...... After that, don't wait for him to reply just turn on your heel and get away from him as if he is diseased and rotten. He will totally freak and I'm sure he'll never bother you again.
PEACE & LOVE & ALL THAT
**** By the way, I know precisely how you feel, my mother is South African and I was taunted mercilessly all throughout my childhood for my "******" lips (as the kids used to say), my frizzy hair and olive skin. However, now, those same fools are getting botox injections in their lips, getting their hair permed and paying mega bucks at the solarium to change their skin color. So, you tell me, are these fools oxygen thiefs or not????!!
PEACE

The best answer is to turn your back on him and not give him any answer to his idiocy.
If you give him back insult for insult, you simply perpetuate his racism and xenophobia.
In the words of Mahatma Gandhi:
"An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind."
However, if you REALLY need an answer for him, you might point out that Africa is the cradle of humanity, and ultimately, every person on this planet, even the Greeks, came from Africa.

How to you seperate the Men from the Boys in Greece?
With a Crowbar.
lol
(cos theyre reknowned for being homosexuals)
Mate, Africas the cradle of civilization - which has some of the finest warrior tribes in the world. Greece on the other hand is just a bunch of dirty stinkin hairy men running around having sex with anything that moves. Just you remember that the next time.

Just ignore him, man. If you react, you fall into his hands and will continue to manupulate you.
Ignore him and he will eventually go silent.
You don't barke back to a dog, do you?!
The greeks are wonderful people, friendly and open minded.
All the best!

Ignore him. Show him you're a bigger person by not stooping to his level. This guy has a lot of growing up to do, so dont let him get to you.
In fact, show him that Africans are gentle, forgiving and kind.
Take care!
