After I blogged about this three years ago, someone created a special website just to denounce my outrageous ‘racism’

From today’s Globe & Mail:

I live in a culturally mixed downtown neighbourhood. Two doors down lives an unemployed man who gets up every day at 7 a.m. to work on his garden. The problem is he has an astoundingly loud and relentless horking habit. Without exaggeration, he expectorates at least once a minute. (…)

The problem is complicated by the fact the horking man is middle-aged and Chinese, and I’ve been told that, for a certain generation of Chinese people, public spitting is as unremarkable as a public cell phone conversation. This guy has unwittingly become public enemy No. 1, but no one is telling him that. Any advice?
