Wow.. so "most" of the people "you've" met act a certain way according to
you! Well this certainly IS information worth having (sarcasm)!!!
So IF these experiences are limited to SOME the people YOU have personally
met what would that percentage of the entire population of Indians living in
the US would this be?
..0002%?, I doubt even that. Thanks for relating your experiences and THANKS
even more for attempting to qualify yourself as "not racist" by explaining
to your humble audience that you aren't indeed talking about "everybody"
(which of course would be impossible).
"I also find integrity to be a big issue when dealing with Indian
