Marta ‘yellow line' to Doraville angers some in Asian community

Asian-American activists offended that MARTA re-named the train line into the
heart of Atlanta's Asian community the "yellow line" will take their objections
to the transit agency's chief on Friday.

========================================================

And to show what I think about this load of crap:




STINKIN MONGOWIIANS YOU TEAR DOWN MY ****** WALL LAST TIMEEEEE!!!

That's utterly pathetic. "As an asian man, I'm offended." Well then glad you moved away. You've obviously got a chip on your shoulder and are thus a liability to this community.

However, there is still a problem to be solved. I say let the market solve the problem. If people in certain communities want a specific color, let them bid on it. Don't want to be stuck being "Mr. Pink"? Then pay for "Mr. Black". MARTA ought to announce a bidding process for all of their lines.

Another alternative is simply to cut off service to the whiners. Now that I think about it, maybe that's the best choice of all: have the gov't get out of the transit business.

These yellow lines don't seem to offend Asian women as they drive right on top of them.

Frankly, knowing what little I know of the gay community, my guess is that the gay community would love to have the pink line go through their neighborhood. Someone would probably open a "Pink Line" bar and make millions.

F'ing morons....Do they not have anything else to do with their lives than look to be insulted?

More proof that adult is just another word for big baby.

P.S. Sissy's play PS3

This reminds me of the guy who said most things associated with the color black are bad. Things like black sheep, black eye, dark cloud, bad guys wear black clothes, etc all pointed towards racism while phrases like lily white etc pointed towards a white elitist attitude. Who has the time to think up such crap?

Just made me realize, that if we didn't have such a politically correct approach in this country, people would know when they're being insulted. They wouldn't have to try and fabricate incidents.

There's an Asian community in Atlanta?

well you have the time to write about it, so i'm assuming you'd have the time to think it up. it probably didn't take him more than a few minutes

I've heard all of that before. When I was at ASU a speaker came to campus and mentioned that golf was the perfect "white man's game" as players try to sink their white seed into black mother earth.

Ugh. And this was supposed to be higher education?

Back then my thought was, "what about all those day-glo orange golf balls?"

Now the obvious answer is: Tiger Woods.

Anyway, next time you hear some idiot deconstructionist start with the black/white thing, throw a few back at him:
being in the black, black tie affair, little black dress...

Yep, it's all about sex and lynching ...

I sometimes ride MARTA into downtown on the "Red Line". The "Red Line" and the "Yellow Line" merge at Lindburgh Station. I don't see many Asians riding MARTA period.

As for Asians, Doraville and parts of Chamblee have large Asian populations. Excellent Vietnamese and Korean food in the area.

Duluth has a pretty large Asian community.

You can count the Asians in Duluth, MN on one hand!
