    Got this from a friend in the us...

    Hate Letter Against Filipinos

    This is a hate letter coming from a radio talk show
    host Mr. Art Bell from Nevada.

    Subject: HATE LETTER

    This is a very disturbing open E-mail letter to all
    Filipinos around the world; specially here in North
    America!, from a man who has the power to reach
    millions of people. (he's a radio talk host)

    Filipinos.....*make me puke* (Art Bell)

    As we've all come to notice, in the past few
    decades, Filipinos have begun to infest the United
    States like some sort of disease. Their extensive
    involvement in the U.S. Armed Forces is proof of
    the trashy kind of qualities all filipinos tend to
    exhibit on a regular basis. You can see this clearly
    by studying the attitudes and cultural Icons of
    most Filipino Americans. Origins of
    Pinoys/Pinays:

    Are they really asian? Well we've come to accept
    the fact the filipinos come from a part of the world
    known as South ! East Asia. But the term "Asia"
    is used in the wrong way. You may notice that
    contemporary Filipino Americans try very hard to
    associate themselves with groups that we know as
    Asian. I cannot count the number of times I have
    seen a 'Third World' Filipino try to connect
    themselves to the Chinese or Japanese people.
    There is no connection and here's why. The
    Philippines is a Third World country. Nothing
    respectable has EVER been created by Filipino
    people during our entire human history. Young
    filipino men in America have become obsessed
    with "import racing". They have an enormously
    perverted affection for Japanese cars. It's a
    common phenomenon. In their minds, these
    filipinos somehow believe that they are asian and
    that it somehow connects them to Japanese
    people and japanese cars. They often take credit
    for the ingenuity of Japanese people and say how
    it's an "Asian thing". This term..."Asian thing"
    derived directly from African American slang "black
    thang". "It's a black thang.! " "It's an asian thang."


    You can see the connection. It's even funnier that,
    in Japan, Filipinos are heavily discriminated
    against. The only filipinos that can live
    successfully in Japan are the filipino prostitutes.
    But that's the case for most Filipino people no
    matter where they live in the world. Now we've
    come down to this fact...and it is a fact. Nothing in
    Filipino Culture can be seen as Asian. They have
    no architectural, artistic, or cultural influence which
    is in ANY way, asian. Thinking of the great
    countries in Asia such as Japan, Korea, and China
    there is no way you can possibly connect the
    Philippine Islands. This assault by filipino
    americans to connect themselves with the great
    peoples of North East Asia is foul and disgusting.
    Try visiting a young filipino's web site too. You'll
    see something called the "Asian IRC Ring". It has
    to do with the chatrooms. The most horrible thing
    about this is that these TRASHY people are trying
    to associate themselves with ! Asia again!!

    People in Asia don't act like, this at all. What we
    are seeing here is the natural Filipino in it's
    element with full access to technology and this is
    how they act! You will consistently see this
    behavior over and over again. Another interesting
    thing is that these "thirdworld" people also frequent
    IRC chatrooms such as ...chinese ..japan
    and ..asian. They must believe that they are some
    how related racially or culturally to North Asians.
    But it's completely WRONG! There might have
    been some distant contact With China and even
    less with Japan during World War II, but these
    people are actually more closely related to african
    americans and Mexican americans. Do the
    parents of these young filipinos know what's going
    on? Would they accept this? I believe that they
    would and do. This is the natural "Trash" element
    in filipinos manifesting itself. Nothing good has ever
    come from Philippines and I don't believe anything
    good ever will.

    Recognizing your Roots (! A Message to Filipinos).

    To all filipino people:

    Please recognize your ROOTS! You come from
    the Third World! You country is a disgusting and
    filthy place. Most people there live in poverty! Your
    culture has MUCH MORE SPANISH influence than
    chinese, and absolutely no JAPANESE influence
    whatsoever. People in Japan and China, do not act
    like you. They do not constantly talk about ***
    and they have a MUCH HIGHER level of RESPECT
    for each other. There is NO WAY that you can
    connect yourself to Asia other than location. Your
    culture and technological advancement does not
    even come CLOSE to What Chinese, people have
    done in the past and what Japanese and Korean
    people are doing now! Everything you do is
    distinctly filipino. You cannot take credit for
    Japanese cars, video games, or Hentai! It's not
    an "asian thing" it's, an "American thing". You
    have no concept of culture..no concept of asian
    ideas or asian philosophy! Can you demonstrate
    how you use Confucianism or Taoism in y! ou
    everyday life?? You can't. And you will NEVER be
    able to. I understand that you are trying to create
    an identity for yourselves as young people... but it
    is NOT related to Asia. Your Identity is Filipino.
    That's all you are. Just Filipino. Think about what
    that means....

    Sincerely,

    Art

    In reply to this email a filipina wrote her own
    thoughts about it..you gOo gurl..=)

    I find this funny, he is right in some ways where
    we, as Filipinos don't actually have an "Identity". I
    think this is due to the confusion of our mixed
    races from Hispanic, Chinese, American and
    Malay origins. I see it in malls, imagine young
    generations wearing ski caps and ski goggles in a
    tropical country, baggy low rise pants like that of
    African Americans living in the Bronx of New York,
    not to mention endless whitening products being
    sold at department stores and drug stores. But his
    ignorance also blinds him from the other truth. That
    while we may glorify Anime shows and Japa! nese
    Internet gaming, he is not aware that a nameless
    Filipino may be responsible for some technical
    aspects of some Japanese software. He is not
    aware of our contribution to the the society in
    general .Technological advancements that may
    have aided post war navigations and landing on the
    moon. That the antibiotic Erythromycin was
    discovered by Dr. Abelardo Aguilar from Iloilo
    creating the brand "Ilosone". Thomas Edison may
    have discovered the electric light bulb and the
    fluorescent lighting was thought up by Nikola
    Tesla. But the fluorescent lamp we use today was
    invented by Agapito Flores (a Cebuano named
    Benigno Flores of Bantayan Island, according to
    the Philippine Daily inquirer), a Filipino
    scientist.Americans helped then-Philippine leader
    Ramon Magsaysay to develop it for worldwide
    commerce. That the personal physician of former
    U.S. Pres. Bill Clinton is Eleanor "Connie"
    Concepcion Mariano, a Filipina doctor who was the
    youngest captain in the US Navy. A Filipino writer !
    Jose Rizal could read and write at age 2, and grew
    up to speak more than 20 languages, including
    Latin, Greek, German, French and Chinese. Or
    that a Filipino genius was responsible for the near
    hiatus in the PENTAGON and White HOuse nearly
    infiltrationg their closely guarded secrets with
    the "ILOVEYOU" bug. Nuisance maybe, but still
    one heck of a 'beautiful mind'...not to be
    underestimated.

    The list goes on and on, but who cares right?

    Certainly not Mr. Art Bell...

    Boy, I'm not surprised. Perhaps Art Bell does not
    know that although we consider ourselves ASIAN
    because we are strategically located in the
    Southeast asian region of which our nearest
    neighbors are Malays, ASIA does not mean only
    Chinese and Japanese race of people. Then
    maybe it is his connotation that "Asia" meant only
    our economically successful, paler brothers and he
    considers Malays such as Thais, Malaysians,
    Indonesians, and ourselves as a "Third World"
    race. Then it is "his" ignonimity tha! t would make
    a civilized person of whatever race puke. Imagine
    literally connecting Chinese, Koreans and
    Japanese to the Philippine Islands which is
    archipelagos away from the countries he has
    mentioned. I also wonder where he got the
    impression that we aspire to be Japanese(???)
    Hispanics maybe but not the Japanese. But even
    Hispanics today do not mind sharing
    their "surnames" to their Asian brothers who they
    have colonized for 3 centuries. Another sad reality
    that although most Filipinos working overseas are
    domestic helpers and prostitutes, who does he
    think educates the toddlers of Hong Kong,
    Singapore, Taiwan and Tokyo? Parents of these
    countries rarely have time spent with their children,
    leaving them to their Filipino nannies. And with
    regards to prostitution. Filipinos are not the only
    ones working as one. I HARDLY SEE FILIPINOS
    STARRING IN **** MOVIES. THERE MIGHT BE
    A FEW FILIPINOS WE HAVEN'T SEEN , BUT
    MOST ARE FROM MR. ART BELL'S RACE.

    He also mentioned that we h! ave no concept of
    culture..no concept of asian ideas or asian
    philosophy. How can we demonstrate
    Confucianism or Taoism in a Christian nation?

    IS HE INFORMED THAT THE PHILIPPINES IS
    THE ONLY PREDOMINANTLY
    CHRISTIAN/CATHOLIC NATION IN ASIA?!

    YOU HAVE TO USE COMMON SENSE IN A LOT
    OF THINGS SOMETIMES...
    We do not need to create an identity for ourselves.
    We are who we are. Our identity stems from the
    anonymity we live in this world. How we contribute
    silently towards the progress of the world and not
    just one country. Although the Filipino blood may
    be tainted with malice, corruption, poverty and
    prostitution, it is not a perfect race... But so are
    the others. Maybe Mr. Art Bell needs to think
    about this.

    WE MAY NOT BE PERFECT MR. BELL BUT AT
    LEAST WE STILL HAVE VALUES. FOR ONE
    THING WE DONT PUT OUR AGING PARENTS IN
    NURSING HOMES BECAUSE "THEY'RE SIMPLY
    OLD AND WORTHLESS". WE DONT HAVE AS
    MUCH NUMBERS OF SINGLE MOTHERS WHO
    GET PREGNANT IN THEIR VERY EARLY TEEN!
    S AND EVENTUALLY BECOME PARASITES OF
    THE GOVERNMENT FOR YEARS AND YEARS.
    YES...WE CAME TO YOUR COUNTRY TO
    WORK, TO EARN DECENT MONEY (HALF OF
    WHICH BY THE WAY GOES TO TAXES
    BECAUSE THERE'S SO MANY SOCIAL
    PARASITES FROM YOUR RACE). AND BY THE
    WAY, MOST EDUCATED PEOPLE THAT I
    WORK WITH DONT COME FROM YOUR RACE...
    THEY'RE ACTUALLY IMMIGRANTS TOO. AND
    THOSE EDUCATED ONES DO NOT ACT LIKE
    YOU DO, PERHAPS BECAUSE THEY'VE
    REALLY BEEN WELL EDUCATED. AFTER ALL
    THAT'S SAID...WHO IS THE IGNORANT ONE
    AGAIN?!

    not to mention i'm sick and tired of all this "agapito flores invented the fluorescent bulb" thing. and erythromycin was not "discovered" by a filipino. according to the only documentation i could find, he SENT FUNGI SAMPLES TO ELI LILLY. but darnit, almost ALL fungi produce antibiotics. bzzzt!

    filipinos react to the discrimination against them by self-aggrandizement. and it annoys the heck out of me. there are enough smart pinoys out there without stupid pinoys coughing up these outrageous claims.

    That's why there's no point in spreading it around anymore. Kawawa naman yung tao, hanggang ngayon sinisiraan pa din.
