Unless they hanged your daughter for trying to open a white account in a yellow bank then stfu.

I suppose it depends. If they'd be just as ****ish to a Japanese-American as they would be to a white American then yeah, it's prejudice. But if it's a race thing and they're sitting there staring you in the face, smiling while they sneer at your round eyes then it's racism territory.

I hope the <3 was for my correct use of "hanged".

Nope doesn't really count. If you get arrested for trying to deposit money into the bank like this man. Then you can scream racism.

Good ole Wichita Kansas. He should have known better trying to live out in those boonies with his skin color.

^ Very good point, dj !

( BTW, last year I was denied a bank account in Britain because I don't have a UK residential address. I consider it an absolutely blatant case of addressism.)

Both are racism worth bitching about. You don't think white supremacists violently and bluntly expressing hatred towards minorities is worth bitching about or that the people who actively empower and defend that behavior isn't worth bitching about?

Art Is Dead. Buy My ****.
