ok, i just have to comment on this one before it dies down..
i realize that most of the Spanish people have no sense of knowing what is racist from what is not. i guess the history of the Philippines during the Spanish occupation alone would attest to that. they never seem to show any remorse in belittling other nations. i guess they're somehow wired to act and think like that, thinking how majestic their culture and lineage is. and i don't think they get the whole fuss over the publicity photo of them imitating the Chinese people. they might have thought that it was something candid and that it did not mean anything racist*. well, it did. it appeared to me as if they were making fun and somehow mocking the Chinese. you might want to avoid that especially at times like these, with the Olympic games going on which, by the way, is suppose to foster peace between nations. anyways, i hope this dies down calmly and that both ends would meet at a common point.
let's love peace.
