I don't know what you thought you were going to accomplish with this thread. Did you expect the numpties on here to be tolerant? Xenophobia is rampant in this country. You have morons who in this day and age still think "real" Americans are white.
For the most part... I'm quite happy that the all the comments don't support the racial slurs and ignorant tweets that were reported especially people like Fox News commentator Todd Starnes....

Still not sure how Indians can be mistaken for an Arab or Muslim (as if religion matters)....

85% approx of Indians are not Muslims.... And Arabs are light skinned... Closer to Europeans...

Go figure stupidity...

the worst part is that we pride ourselves on having access and freedom to information. we have a plethora of resources: teachers, professors, libraries, books, internet, etc. theres no excuse for being so fucking stupid. you really have to actively keep yourself uneducated to get to that level.

it's understandable to be ignorant in a poor and/or restrictive country, but this shit shouldn't be happening here.

I doubt any city beats San Jose & SF. But I agree the dollar goes a lot farther in Houston.

The highest paying county in the US is Manhattan and has been for decades. I think Fairfield County is second.

Well Greenwich is where many of the hedge fund bosses live, however it is also in Fairfield County which is home to many other wealthy towns (Darien, New Canaan, Southport, Weston, Westport, Ridgefield, Wilton, etc). Oh, you make $250k? Welcome to the middle class...

yeah, San Jose or CT have the highest national income, but they have to because everything there is so expensive.

Houston residents brings home less money than the above two cities, but our cost of living is a fraction of those two as well.

lets just say it's very comfortable living in Houston.....very comfortable.....
