    He’s allowed to have an opinion. There’s nothing wrong with he said. You shouldn’t be ashamed of your race asian, Black, white, whatever. He should be proud of who he is. Nothing wrong with that

    If he was black and proud of it, then no one would be saying anything. Interesting no?

    World is becoming more an more a crappy place to live. If you are not bothered by people misleading statements way out of context just to point fingers.... then you are just another idiot.

    Respect each other, and just cut the crap.

    It's hard work maintaining a climate focused on race. Everyone putting in their time. I couldnt give 2 $hits what your race / heritage / religion, etc is. I love every one of you whether you like it or not.

    He deleted the tweet. The only winning move for him now is to say he choose now to live as a gay man.


    It won't be a hard sell.

    It's the right move. People should take all this white pride / white shame stuff to the D&D forum. It doesn't really belong in NBA dish, unless we're just going to have a laugh at pathetic NBA twitter wars.

    I guess, I'd only say as a peace offering to the issue: I wish people were proud of themselves and who they had become, as individuals. I wish people were proud of their ongoing work, and what they were trying to do for the world and their neighbors. That seems like a better goal than all this melanin pride.

    I have come to this conclusion long time ago: You should be ashamed of yourself if you were not Asian.

    Cmon asteroid. 2018 is too stupid for future generations to learn and laugh about.

    My heritage is Algerian. I can speak, read, write Arabic and French. When I have a beard, I look like a terrorist. When I’m clean shaven and in my suit I look like Zinadine Zidane. Technically, I’m white according to the census bureau but who cares. There’s no reason to hate your heritage. Nobody is responsible for what happened 300 years ago.

    Then again, if everything stopped being considered racist, then some activist would actually have to get real jobs and be productive instead of just telling everyone to be outraged.

    What's wrong with him being proud of who he is? Should he be ashamed of being white? It would be different if he was a KKK member, that's a choice, but he can't help being born white.
