This whole Ferry mess thing is much bigger than it should be. Not downplaying that this is insensitive to some but when I first heard this, i thought this was so small and minute. By this I mean, I have Africans, Indians and friends from all races. And we use to make comments like this to each other about counterfeits and stuff like that all the time. Does that make us racist? I've made similar comments to my Indian friends and they make the same about Asians. Not one time did i felt it was a racist comment. If anything, I felt its more a stereotype about cultures than anything. Maybe I'm naive maybe.
