I'd be extremely embarassed if I was one of those ladies I hope that maybe if they look back on this they will realize how absurd they sound and learn from it. I find it highly commendable that the guy went and talked to the women afterwards...I would not be able to do that personally. It's extremely upsetting to see that there are people who still have these types of views, I hope that our generation is more open minded and when it comes to be our turn to have kids and raise them, we raise them not to have any prejudices against anybody.

Some people are followers not leaders and they don't have the courage or intelligence to think and question things they have been told, IMO they are free to think whatever they want. But seriously who the hell are you to go around imposing your delusional beliefs on other people......smdh.

I think y'all missing the parts of the video where the non-ignorant people spoke up too... yeah, you have two people with ingrained racism, but I can see where they're comming from (their upbringing), but I think you had a majority of reasonable people there..
Of course this video clip draws attention to the pricks.. if you had a bunch of people saying reasonable things, that wouldn't make for interesting television..
While it is easy to target these people for their "ignorant" comments, ridiculing them doesn't change anything. I'm not sympathizing with them and I definitely don't agree, but education as opposed to ridicule goes a long way.

Mine said something along the lines of "Just don't go for dark chocolate. Milk chocolate is still sweet, at least."
Yes... That was my interpretation of that too... >_>
maybe they think the sex isn't as good, that's why they mentioned the sweet part.....

Interracial dating still makes a lot of people uncomfortable, almost every couple gets looks from other people.

my parents would prefer if i married/dated/copulated with another polak, just to keep the blood pure(thanks hitler for giving that a bad meaning) and so their grandkids could have a higher possibility of speaking the language
