    How is it you know how many times I experienced being bullied exactly?

    I didn’t realize racism and bullying were “minorly shitty”. To people that aren’t jerks, these are real problems.

    And no, I never said anything other than “I understand why France would want to lock that shit down.” Not that I agree with the alt-right, not that North African people are inherently bad, not that only North Africans could treat people this way. I was very clear I knew my story to be anecdotal.

    Yes, you’re a fool on a fool’s tirad to make some point no one was arguing against. Must I remind you that you started this conversation by saying you wished for more American-oriented racism in the world. Have a nice day!

    I’m a white American that lived in France for 7 years in grade school. It’s the only time I’ve experienced racism. I know that sounds ridiculous as a white man, but I was relentlessly targeted by North African immigrants for no other reason than being American. Immigration is an issue in France. People are coming but they are not integrating. They don’t follow the laws, they don’t view women as equals, they hate LGBT, they hate western ideals. So, as an American who believes immigration is a good thing in the States - I understand why the French want to lock that shit down.
