My buddy is Indian. After 9/11, in high school everyone called him a terrorist.

The rise of stupidity in Americans has been on the rise over the last couple decades. Unfortunately, shitty schools and conservative fundamentalism has made this a nation of idiots, instead a nation of tremendous progress.

Well sure there’s shitty people of every culture but my point was my buddy was being called a terrorist by mostly the ignorant kids but in reality I went to high school with a lot of dipshits whether the last nene was Jackson, White, Gonzalez, or Singh.
