Read your story Lups, and didn't see *any* trace of racism here. The guy in the old car was acting silly. I mentioned in another thread people need to start having some thicker skin if they will want to survive in this world. That goes for everyone. Every single time an incident happens where someone from another race other than your own happens, everyone loves to shout "racism" these days. It's become trendy almost.

Remember, I'm a foreigner here too just like you are. I was visiting a friend of mine years ago in a small town in Texas. We went over to her grandma's house for an ice tea. You know, that's just what you do in Texas. Grandma starts asking me all kinds of questions of "where I'm from". That's just friendly. But then she asks what I'm doing here, and why I'm going to University in the USA. "Don't they have Universities in Belgium"?

I still laugh about it to this day. This woman was white, so was I. But she wasn't exactly thrilled that I had moved here and am now attending one of "her" Universities. Did I whine about it? Naah. It was actually a clean troll on the old woman. Like I said, gotta have thicker skin than that.
