Those of you for whom English is not your first language - have you ever been shunned or discriminated (in real life & on the internet) by people because they hate the way you speak English or they are uncomfortable with the style of English you use?

Yes. I fight everyday vs red necks & neo nazis & other spanish people. I'm tired of fighting everyday. Even in my own neighborhood there was 3 neo nazis about to attck my pops so, I ran out my house & stood along with my pops to hold ground & also confronted them with racisl slurs. Matter of time, one neo nazi threw his cell phone at me but, missed & thats when all hell broke loose. Then my pops swung a right fist against one neo nazi & the neo nazi flew 20 ft to the other direction. While neo nazi 1 & my pops were fighting, another neo nazi speared me to the ground unexpectedly & I fell down. However, since I'm a judo student. I tossed neo nazi 2 over me & he flew around me so, i got up & tackled hiss neo nazi azz to the ground & starting giving severe blows to his head & his chest. While I was giving him all the best swings & kicks. Neo nazi 3 was watching & went to attack my pops. However, my pops was to strong for them (neo 1&2)& broke his rib cage. The fight lasted about 15-20 minutes & the police did not come until 5 minutes after the fight. All 3 neo nazis ran away crying & moaning like pnks.
After all that, I've jumped on their car hood & decalared victory as a real aryan solider would do.
My pops speak Tamil & Sinhalese & English.

No discrimination, however some people I encounter for the first time comment on how my English is perfect. (I guess these people expect me to have an accent). Example: "Wow, you speak perfect English, you have no accent." I just laugh it off.

I have never been unkind to someone who can't speak English correctly. However, the Hispanic population thinks its real funny when I can't speak there language.

I think women are cut with an accent...I am married to a Colombian woman, if that tells you anything...try being a Southerner and go up North and talk...they treat us the same way...they think we are stupid just because we have an accent...

Yeah until you learn that you can use fear as a tool to achieve results, and gain respect.
