Racismo en el Internet

[Wfsatits]

I believe it's important for all groups in South Africa to work out a compromise and try to live in peace. Yes, it is possible. No, I am not the only one to believe so. You don't want to end up like a boy in America named Scott, who lives in Seattle and who posts vile messages full of hatred toward Blacks. He posts as "Max Power" and as "little_oswald" in various forums. He is 25 and lives with his parents, and pretends to be an "engineer" online.

Here is a sample of his writing:

"[Michael] Moore then goes off into the deep recesses of outer space when he claims that, as a result of slavery, blacks had their 'language and culture and religion' taken away from them. Newsflash Mike -- spear-chucking, cannibalism, witchcraft and 'ooga-booga' hardly qualify as 'language and culture and religion.'"

As you can see, he denies that Blacks had their language and culture taken away. And this guy thinks he has a promising future as a writer! Ignorance like this is what has led to so much suffering in South Africa.

Here is his photo so we can all see what internet racists look like:
