SEWER RAT 10,617 Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 [updated] Buzzfeed wrote an entry : A Lot Of People Are Very Upset That An Indian-American Woman Won The Miss America Pageant Nina Davuluri became the first contestant of Indian heritage and the second consecutive contestant from New York to win the Miss America pageant Sunday night. Davuluri, 24, won the title as the nationally televised pageant returned home to Atlantic City. She succeeds another Miss New York, Mallory Hagan, whose tenure was cut short when the pageant moved back to Atlantic City after a six-year stint in Las Vegas, where winners were chosen in January. Davuluri performed a classical Bollywood fusion dance for her talent competition. After the traditional frolic in the Atlantic City surf Monday morning, she will head to the scene of a devastating boardwalk fire in the New Jersey communities of Seaside park and Seaside Heights on Monday afternoon. The pageant had pitted 53 contestants — one from each state, plus the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands — in swimsuit, evening gown, talent and interview competitions. source lol?

Klover12 563 Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 This is why america is a laughing stock to the rest of the world. We'll never get over that ignorant hurdle of racism and stupidity. I, speaking as an Asian American myself, agree. America is so shallow where it makes me disgusted to be American. The amount of racism and stupidity within my country has only risen in the past few years. In America, from first hand experience, all Asians are either Chinese or Japanese. The language we speak is "ching chong" and we apparently cannot see out of our eyes. I wouldn't be surprised if America had the lowest IQ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mog 5,083 Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 There's always going to be ignorant comments in situations like this and it's sad, but all I can do is hope that it's not always going to be that way in the future or that at the least the people who think that way are reduced dramatically. On a brighter note, there are people out there happy for her and not the least bit bothered and hopefully things like that can be what she remembers and focuses on.

evil4life 3,270 Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 twitter is really such a breeding ground for stupidity that exceeds Youtube, and sometimes i seriously wonder seeing how you can see they're names and faces whether these people are trolling or just downright ignorant.
