My brother is a retired air force pilot but I don't know what he flew. His daughter works on a aircraft carrier.

yeah, there are some asian american pilots but you don't usually hear about them.

A buddy of mine who is Korean just got commissioned from ROTC last spring. He's going to be an officer in the Army aviation, probably flying Blackhawk or Apache (granted, it's not a fighter jet but close enough)

Big huge difference between a fighter jet and a helicopter.

Big accomplishment though, but not on the same scale as a jet.

No their not. Chinese people in general are always treated suspiscously when they work for the government, because they're always sending back secrets to their motherland.

Other Asian Americans are proud Americas, not like Chinese whom live in America but hate America.

I can speak on this. Every Asian American I know that joined the military was asked what there nationality was. As long as they werent chinese they were greeted with a semi approval. Allot of Chinese americans say there taiwanese, or there families have been in california longer then there white asses have been. Still Chinese are seen suspiciously in the U.S military.

I know im gonna get in trouble for this but i dont care. Chinese people are human garbage. I know these people..I work around these people and also go to school with them. If it were up to me, i wouldnt let any people from China into America anymore. They live in America, yet they hate America. Their country is soo great yet they risk their lives to get into America.

Af is full of Chinese users whom live in America but yet hate America. It drags Asian Americans and our accomplishments back 100 years. What a waste of air these people are.

There is NOTHING wrong with criticizing the U.S. government i.e. Bush Administration and his foreign policy.

However, there is something if you constantly talk $hit about America and praise your motherland

I am Canadian, I quite like it here as it is a peaceful country that shows hostility to no one. However I am disgusted with America for the fact that your government causing millions of people to die overseas by trying to play world cop and the Americans are too fat and lazy to do anything about it. While this is all happening your government opens it's mouth with words full of hypocrisy and expect other countries to listen and many Americans are still stupid enough to buy this crap. It's not just Chinese that feel this way, I have Serbian friends, Pakistani friends that feel the same too. Chinese, Pakistani, Serbian and American I know there is a connection somewhere. Having love for America and the American government are two different things. Having pride in American culture and lifestyle is not the same as submitting to the government. People who equate love for the county as to love for the government are imbeciles. Good luck dying for your government institution, by joining the army.

Accomplishments? You mean having to fight for rights that were supposed to be guaranteed?

Hi Legion, my dimwitted cowardly friend. Stop trying to leech off the accomplishments of people smarter than you. These accomplishments don't belong to you. Someone who is confident in himself and his accomplishments wouldn't spend the amount of time and energy you do bashing people. It's because of degenerates like you that there is war, ignorance, and poverty in the world. True story.

By the way, what ethnicity are you? I mean your real ethnicity. And where is that fetus soup I ordered?!

Just when I thought hanren and I had established a respectful relationship he disabuses me of my illusion by saying:

hanren, do you feel capable of defending Canada from withering criticism? If so let me know, and we'll get started.

its right for americans to be suspicious. I grew up in China and moved to Australia here a long time ago. If i were offered a nice settlement package to do a little spying in the military, i would. Its not that i love China or hate Australia or vice versa, in fact believe it or not most people are individualists and do not give a flying crap about nationality, race and etc. If there is fast money involved then that is something to talk about.
