| I so did not want to make this thread... but no one has... Miss America crowns 1st winner of Indian descent (CNN) -- She's the second consecutive New York beauty queen to take the Miss America title, but she's the first Indian-American to wear the national crown -- er, tiara -- atop her perfectly coiffed head. "I was the first Indian Miss New York, and I'm so proud to be the first Indian Miss America," Nina Davuluri said after she won. Davuluri's resume goes considerably deeper than her heritage, however. The 24-year-old Fayetteville, New York, native was on the dean's list and earned the Michigan Merit Award and National Honor Society nods while studying at the University of Michigan, where she graduated with a degree in brain behavior and cognitive science. Despite a night of firsts, a tired theme emerged following Davuluri's victory: Racists took to Twitter to lambaste the pageant for picking an Indian-American. They were none too kind to Davuluri herself, either, with one particularly uninformed tweeter calling her a Muslim. http://www.cnn.com/2013/09/16/showbiz/miss-america-racist-reactions/ I'll only say one thing, and then show one thing: First off, someone update these people as to what "an American" looks like. So, here's the update: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2YRR_bwbqE8 Btw, here are some featured tweets: http://www.buzzfeed.com/ryanhatesthis/a-lot-of-people-are-very-upset-that-an-indian-american-woman |

Gather enough of these people; and viola, they gain the power strong enough to have someone elected in office. It's sad how there's enough of them to do that. |

Savannah Dale @savannah_dale97 Miss New York is an Indian.. With all do respect, this is America *facepalm* Do these people not realize that we are all descended from foreigners (except Native Americans of course), and there is no one "American" race? |

| It's twitter, this kind of stuff happens constantly. It's retarded, but literally everyone has access to it and they want to look cool to their friends or say something 'smart' and get retweeted (and others are just actually fucking stupid people) - so they say whatever stupid shit they can think up. Don't mind it and don't pretend it's in any way even a sizeable minority. It's nobody and nothing. These are the "They say Russia is invading Georgia, but I don't hear any tanks" yahoo answers types. Getting bothered by this kind of shit just isn't worth the time or the emotion. |

| In other words, people are being assholes anonymously on the internet..... Okay? Is this even news? People can be assholes, convo. over. |

| I read this on a site earlier "Always amusing when white Americans get all riled up about immigrants/immigration considering their not-so-distant history." I dont see why anyone would get so mad @ a non white winner of an American contest. |
