Rofl I JUST thought of someone adding a picture of Yao Ming and to that and posting that picture as a joke. Poor choice of words, lol

I wasn't trying to rip on you Sean, by any means, I just reread what I had said and realized it was too general for me to put my name on it and thought your post had just possibly been made in reference to that generality.

the spanish authorities response is typical of how they deal with these issues.......as i said before they could be construed by some as a bunch of racist bastards.....which in fact a lot of them are........
