Of course, your statement that these comments "are typical of beliefs
that many Chinese-cu believe" is about as valid a generalization as
the original poster's comment that blacks favor quotas and dominate
the Democratic party.  And note that I don't agree with the original poster.

I would hate to have this post counted as part of any kind of "flurry
of posts" but go back and check your news reader; you'll notice at
least two posts arguing with the original post from 
dtwei@acsu.buffalo.edu, one of which was from me.  Guess we
"baboon-like Chinese-cu" (to use your phrase) beat you to it.

How about damning all bigotry while you're at it, especially the kind
you practice?
