it will come down to race thats how we work in this country for some reason.

Imagine if he was black or hispanic.. there would be so much more hate all over this. (not trying to start a debate or flame war or saying that it being an asian makes anything better)

it's not about race, it's about the lifestyle. most asain parents will not allow thier kids to get bad grades. ask around...it's a well knonwn fact. that is the only reason why the asian race thing was brought up and also why they 'act out' more in college then any others. making it all that way then messing up in college would make his parents beat the shit outta them. again it's not the race it's the lifestyle of most of the race. so dont let this turn into a race battle. <3

is it really a well known fact?? both my parents are asian and they "don't allow me to get bad grades" and i know plenty of other asian families that don't beat their children for screwing up in school/college...you are stereotyping by posting that and by using words like "fact"... don't start quoting "well known facts" when they really aren't... (i'm not mad...i'm just saying you shouldn't quote something as a fact when in reality it's just a stereotype)

lifestyle, not race. and there are a lot of people they will not allow thier kids to get bad grades, and a B is not an A, and not accepted as a 'good try'.
