When in Rome do as the Romans do

Hello,
Los Angeles is multi-ethnic society, and different people from all over the world getting together, and trying to live in harmony. However, when you get to work, there is obvious difference of talent and salary based upon ethnicity within company or school. For instance, there are many Mexican or Black people working very hard physical job with low wage, while many Asian or white people are often getting better job with good salary.
Unfortunately, I hear many young Japanese people studying English at ESL level, make all kinds of comments against people of different race using Japanese language. They call Mexicans are like cockroach, or Blacks are lazy, and so on. I happen to have many black and Mexican friends, and I feel so bad when same Japanese people call them like that. If American people say such things in English, they will be sent to jail for such comments, and many Japanese young people don’t seem to care about it.
I feel this is kind of very dangerous situation for Japanese community in LA, and have to do something about it. Is it ok to tolerate this kind of comments or language just because we are in Japanese language community? Many great Japanese and Japanese American people are working so hard to make better society in LA, and only a few of very naive ignorant Japanese students are destroying entire images of Japanese people. How do you feel about living in melting pot society? How do you treat people of different color and culture? Thanks.

変な名前の人!あなたの言ってること理解できてます!だけれども、あなたの言い方、バカ呼ばわりの仕方私に対しても、他の文章からも、凄く伝わります!だから、気分が悪いです。最後に怠け者は差別ではありませんよ。ただ、知的レベルの低い人間がダメとはわたしは思いません。なぜならば、イロイロな人間がいてこそ世の中が成り立っているからです。あと貴方とは議論したくないですからもう終わりにしましょう。ごきげんよう。。あと サンタさん ね をとりました。ね?

Dude, Dreamer -
First of all society has been screwed up for quite a long time . . .
And what does your topic have to do with the opening phrase . . . *When in Rome do as Romans do*
Yea so what, everyone in this world has there negative aspects think about it, you yourself probably judge people daily without realizing it. People in general (not all but mostly), diss other people, race, ethnicity (it's a psychological thing, and it occurs because of society). . . so what are you trying to prove? that japanese people are judgemental, we are racist towards other ethnicity???? dude, your judging that every japanese person with your statement . . . your saying because of what some other japanese people said of other ethnicity, it isn't cool, stop it . . .how can you stop people from dissing others when they themselves are dissing them and their own culture . . . not everyone disses other ethnicity, not everyone has an enjoyable standard awesome jobs, we aren't all made to be equal, with equal oppurtunities . . . o.k. not every one goes and diss others, there are people who respects others if they deserve it then there are people who don't . . .

dreamerさん。
私もメキシカンの人をゴキブリ、ブラックを怠け者と言う日本人を見た事がまだありません。でも日本人は「白人がブラブラ・・・」とか「外人が・・・・・」という表現はよく使うけど、コケージョンが「イエローは・・・・・」と色で分ける表現をすると気分を悪くしたりしますよね?ようするにその人の教養でどう表現するかが決まるのだと思います。同人種で長い間生活している人種は、この点ではすごく鈍感なのだと思います。
悪意で言ってるケースと無知なため知らずに話してるケースがあると思います。
これが学生なら「しょうがない」で通せる場合もあるけど、社会人になれば訴訟ですし、特にアメリカはジェール行きになるケースが多いけど知らない人が多いのだと思いますよ。
「郷に入れば郷に従え」もちろんですが、その国に住んでいても文化を勉強せず自分の国の常識で(国によって常識が違う)通そうとする人は国籍問わずいますよね。

こらあーさん。
スペイン語が母国語なのかな?なんとなく文法がスパニッシュっぽいのでそうなのかなと思って。
おそらく、日本語を最初に読み書きからではなくカンバから学んだのではないでしょうか?
文法をきちんと勉強していると、日本語のsubject + object + verbの順で書けるようになると思います。日本語には敬語があって男性の使う敬語と女性が使う敬語があるので(スペイン語の場合、冠詞は男女で分けるように)
日本語の場合、米語よりもブリティシュに近いのでmay i , could you , shall we , might you , をパブリックでは使うのが主流です。仕事でもカジュアル英語を使うと人から舐められるのと同じで日本語は敬語を使う時とカジュアルとケースバイケースで分けないと人から舐められのでご注意を。
私も上司から注意された経験があります。
