    I once worked with a very nice Vietnamese girl at Tektronix. One time I had dinner with her and her husband. The husband was changing his shirt and I saw what I thought was a swastika tattooed on his shoulder. I was shocked. Imagine the relief I got when a couple weeks later I learned that the symbol was backwards and had to do with his Buddhist religion.

    No, I know them and they are absolutely not racist.
    They had a friend that came over for another dinner and spent the whole evening bitching about Blacks and saying they were useless. I asked them how they felt about that talk and they said they did not like it at all. They never said a word to that prick. I tried reasoning with him and gave up on him as impossible to reason with.
    No, they are not racist. Don't know about the many others that I worked with but they all seemed to get along fine with the lead technician, Paul Green, brother of famous football player Woody Green.

    CONSERVATIVE ASIANS ARE MORE RACIST THAN WHITE PEOPLE

    They are financially Conservative but socially Liberal. So, which are they if they'd rather cut off their hand than vote for Trump?
    They all favor the working man and minorities' rights.

    Sounds like they're Kasich conservatives. A lot of Asians are. Well, not specifically Kasich supporters, but that sort of mix.

    Who are these realtors that are limiting their earning potential by restricting their sales possibilities, and what's wrong with them?

    That may be a problem in some parts of the south, I suppose, but I can't imagine a realtor in this area not showing people any property on the market that they want to see. And, besides, who asks a realtor to assemble a list of properties these days? Doesn't everyone do their own research on-line?

    If they're really racist, why are they taking on black clients in the first place? :dunno:

    Thing is, most racist businesspeople behave(d) in a racist way because they also thought it was good for their business ("I don't serve black people because then white customers won't come", etc). In this case, I don't see how there could be any business value--even to a racist--in not maximizing a realty client's available options.

    Covertly doing it without trying to make it show. If they deny certain races outright it will come to light very quickly and they will be on a blacklist. If they say, we help anyone as a face value, and then deny showings covertly, They aren't shining a spotlight on their racism, but in their mind, likely thinking they won and helped to continue to oppress the oppressed.

    Rational people like you and I wont understand it. But I could easily see a racist rationalizing his/her white supremacy by denying those of color a viewing.
