This has been an interesting thread. I'd like to comment on some of the posts, but I'm not sure how to 'multiple quote', so I'll just wing it.
As far as the person who had to sit at the table for 4 hours, I don't see how anyone can blame that on their heritage. That seems more a parenting decision than anything else.
About the fast food watering down in Europe, that's got nothing to do with any color but one: green.
And about the stereotyping. That ties in nicely with the original topic of this thread, racism. People form opinions on what they see from the outside, and without bothering to find out the facts, or experience someone else's ways, they grow and nurture their uneducated views until hate sprouts.
