Stupid fucks, they're the reason this country gets a bad name
Only Native Americans should be eligible
I think its time they took a course on American history. Everyone except the natives are immigrants/foreigners
im not racist but lets lynch all the niggers
but 4 real, if she is a documented citizen, she's an american. who cares, this county was founded on immigrants
When I was a kid, one of my neighbors and friends was an Indian kid in my grade. One day at the store, I asked my mom, "When did R move to America?"
She said, "What? He's always lived here. He was born here."
"Then why isn't he white? If you're born in America, aren't you white?"
She was obviously flustered. "Haha, what? Your skin color isn't based on where you were born, it's based on the skin color of your parents."
"[I]Ohhhhhhh.[/I] Oops."
This happened when I was in early elementary school. 1st grade, 2nd grade at the latest.
And yet many [I]grown adults[/I] still don't seem to understand that.
I remember being too young to realize what race was. If only adults could be the same.

Loves tattoos?
I'd say she looks better in the top two than she does in the bottom two.
All the "generic blond" bashing comments aren't much better than the people bashing the Indian woman. The best person should win, whether they are blond, Indian, or any other random group.
Bigots ahoy!
Seriously though...the amount of fucking hypocrisy going on in that comments section is astounding.
Really am getting ashamed to call myself an American. We keep on fucking spouting "land of the free! land of the free!" and then I see shit like this.

Yeah except people saying blondes win too much are not spouting racial slurs.

Saying you don't want someone to win because of their hair color is pretty much the same thing.
What's with all the white european descendants winning miss america? I'm not racist but they can all get out of my continent.

Contests based on subjective things shouldn't be taken as seriously as this in the first place

She's pretty good looking.

Many sports are subjective in nature including gymnastics and boxing.
As a note: I don't give a shit about any of these pageants.

Miss America contests should just be tit cup size multiplied by cost of outfit/makeup.

Even sarcastically, this is as bad as the people saying an Indian shouldn't be able to win.

No, that's just personal taste (albeit the accusation of blonde women winning all th time is a bit wrong because a bit of search reveals most of the winners of the previous pageants were brunettes), it's not driven by any sort of racial bias.
Also back in 2010 a black woman won, I wonder if that got as much people yelling as this year's winner.
I was just doing some research and came across this.

They just seem like another form of: "I don't want THOSE kinds of people to win" instead of judging each person on an individual basis, which is the entire point of the pageant.
"Generic blond" has an inherently negative connotation beyond personal preference. It's used as an objective phrase, not a subjective one.
"I'm swear I'm not racist, but I'm actually a complete fucking racist"

Do some women have to wear so much make-up that you can't even see their nose? It looks worse in big screen.

"Generic blond" isn't a comment on beauty preference, it's a comment on having a negative perception of attractive people with blond hair.[/QUOTE]
Please stop trying to assimilate hair color over calling people the wrong ethnicities and considering them lesser beings for being of that specific ethnicity.

Would probably look better without the forced smile. Forced smiles always look terrible.
she looks like someone who runs for mayor but then loses to the fat dude who's been doing it for 20 years

her neck looks comically long because of her hair and the v of the shirt
