In a way you are right about Asians being discriminatory, but in another way you are being unfair, and glossing over the horrible history of this nation with regards to how it had/has treated minorities. Did you know the largest mass lynching by whites was not of blacks, but of Chinese out west. I don't even have to say much about Native American Indians historical experience in this country. Two of the main ingredients inside our melting pot were unhealthy doses of blood, with big applications of violence mixed in. Not sure how proud one can be of that. When history speaks to us, the words that come out are often very different from our myths. > In my experience, Asians are WAY more xenophobic than we are. Another reason to be very proud of our melting pot. We let anyone become an American, and pretty much welcome everybody.
