While I understand the whole idea of victimhood culture I'm not sure that the example they presented was a good one. I mean I couldn't hope to count the number of times I've gotten off-hand remarks about being Hispanic. I just brush them off, but I honestly can't see this dude blowing up like that if this was literally the first instance of this issue. Even if this was the first issue, it may not have been the first instance in his current environment. If it is the dude is being oversensitive, and blew it way out of proportion.
