    You may look down on India which this post shows without you realizing... but Indians look down on people like you.

    This is your conclusion? I absolutely do not look down on India. Terrible conclusion from you.

    There's extreme poverty in India and millions of people struggle to find their next meal and clean drinking water. Compare that to people being outraged about whether somebody is offended by an unclear 6 second internet video. Perspective.

    You are saying people should be allowed to say racist things without critique because people in India are suffering and living in misery while bigtexxx lives comfortly.

    The two are not even connected. But you trying to connect very unrelated things shows your supreme idiocy and arrogance

    Suspend for 1 game or 2 as a repercussions. Otherwise it'll happen again when someone slip an N word or wear a towel over their head that resemble kkk

    Btw I do not believe Yuli’s gesture and use of the word “chinito” were racist. Insensitive? Yes. To try and imply racist undertones with it is just stupid.

    Also, mocking somebody's physical differences in a derogatory manner has nothing to do with political correctness. No more than trump bragging about grabbing womens vaginas is just a guy bragging to his buddies.
    Its ignorance, unsportsmanlike and should not be tolerated.

    Way to completely miss the point he was making about India's real problems stupid.

    "Racism" (term used by popular media and academia to describe complex cultural issues in the most simplistic way possible) is largely a "first world problem" (ie what real racists like you would call "white people problems" without batting an eye.) Regular people of all races who work jobs to support familes generally get along fine with each other and don't obsess over "race". This PC horseshit is mostly perpetuated either by millionaires, college kids who live with their parents, or indoctinated fools who need easy explanations about the world they know nothing about.

    Have a nice day.

    Well he’s already apologizing so we know he did it ! What sucks is that Houston has the momentum and lots of people really liking this young team. I already had a friend text me (royal fan) and say “astros are a bunch of racist” I was like “dude it’s Astro it’s one player not the whole team who did this” but right there I realized that’s how the media thinks

    Exactly. I'm not going to take Lou's bait. He's an internet warrior troll.

    Why don't you and bigtexxx talk about the problems white people have in Houston? Wtf does the problems of India have to do with anything discussed here?

    Both of you are idiots
