So then I moved to the North side. Much better quality of life. Quieter. Cleaner. safer.

think what you want about me, but my views have been shaped by my own experiences. And people who listen to hip-hop and speak in gangster slang just aren't to be trusted.

see, it has more to do with behavior than skin color. like my sister's boyfriend, he's black...but he acts white. Listens to country and rock and roll, goes hunting and fishing, etc. He doesn't put limitations on himself. and I can understand him when speaks, i.e. he doesn't talk in ignorant ****ing gibberish. And he keeps his pants pulled up, so I don't look at his ass.

My cousin's husband, on the other hand...I don't trust him. And my cousin's kids can't come to my grandparent's anymore, because they break shit and steal, are rude, loud, and generally all-around disrespectful.

Again, my views are shaped through my own experience.

90% of all people are shit. ymmv.

Can't say i disagree with you. Like i said, white people need to stand up for themselves better. Hence my "riot" joke. Problem is, this country is so afraid of being labeled as racist by one another that you can no longer state the obvious.
