Why is it that when a fish like crappie and fluke are being sold at a market it is then noted that it is being sold at an "Asian market"? I have seen things sold at "non-asian" markets that I thought, why TF is this being sold at this price or why?, but no one ever says that "Oh wow, I see this thing being sold at "Caucasian Market, middle east market, black market, etc.".
I have heard on boats when I go fishing, on this forum, and in tackle shops, how "Asians and yellow people" are culprits for most of illegal fishing. I even heard that we wiped out black fish in Atlantic because we use a secret bait called sea urchins. Pretty ridiculous. Oh yeah, I also heard that we wiped out Mackerel because we like mackerel sushi so much and "we" pay premium price for it. "Live Fish Market"? yes, we wiped out the fish because we thirst for live fish. Very educated judgement considering that there is 1 Asian out of 30 people in NY/NJ area (I think).
Let me say this, most of you guys preach "conservation", "dont waste meat", "save the breeders". Well you know what? are most of you so privileged that you fillet all of your fish to just harvest 1/3 of your catch? How much meat are being wasted by throwing away the rest of the fish after you fillet them? Maybe we didnt have to take 25 seabass home if we all knew how to utilize our catch to the fullest. There is a country, if you care to look, that has zero fishing regulations, however they just have some guidelines for people to follow. Their fishery is doing well, both recreational and commercial, maybe they are doing something right that this country cant figure out?
If a simple comment that I made "I thought Asians wiped out the fishes" constitutes me as a disgusting individual and poor excuse for a human being, what do we call 99% of the population that are living in this country?
As for lack of Fluke, maybe they don't feel like or have the need to come to Jersey shore anymore? ever think about that? I used to go to Atlantic City often, but not anymore, like most other people.
Problem? Call me. 201-681-5132

Definition of an Asian Market:
An Asian supermarket is a category of grocery stores in Western countries that stocks items imported from the multiple countries in East, South and Southeast Asia. Supermarkets in Asia generally (except for the Middle East) have no equivalent to the "Asian" supermarkets of the West; foodstuffs in each respective Asian country have vastly different regulations and supply chains from one another, so stores are localized for each country's tastes and only carry locally approved items for that market. Examples of this: seaweed snacks, originate in Japan where they are salty or savory, in Thailand they are often spicy and locally produced.
An Asian Market is not a politically incorrect or derogatory term.
The comment you replied to about crappy was my comment and I was emphasizing two things and two things only. First I never saw them sold in any market and the price I thought was ridiculous at 17.99 / lb. Nothing derogatory was said or intended about culture. Apparently someone else thought your reply was inappropriate also as it was deleted so no I didn't read in between the lines as probably most who read your post didn't either.
All other points from your recent post are your words, not mine. Find it interesting you take exception to me criticizing what I thought were derogatory comments about Asians in your post yet you go on a tirade about this country's culture in your most recent rant. If you find this country's culture that offensive, you have options like everyone else.
Your statement
"As for lack of Fluke, maybe they don't feel like or have the need to come to Jersey shore anymore? ever think about that? I used to go to Atlantic City often, but not anymore, like most other people."
I must say thank God I actually never have thought about that. If I had, I'd start worrying. Are you saying you don't go to Atlantic City anymore because of the onerous fluke regulations in place or fluke don't come to New Jersey because they don't like Atlantic City? Wasn't sure exactly the point you're trying to make.
Fyi, not smart posting your phone number on the internet, might consider deleting that.
