I'm done trying to explain this to all of you that keep hammering at me. You can believe what you want to. I KNOW what's happening in this area. If you don't live here you really don't know do you? It doesn't have anything to do with being a racist. It's FACTUAL. |
I just have to address this comment. Kathy, this is rediculous if you think this is defense for you NOT to be a racist. If I was to call the school board and ask them if the reason the crime rate is going up in your town because of the minority people moving in, well, I couldn't do it. Not because I don't believe you but because it is stupid.
Perhaps the crime rate is going up because when you have certain amount of crime with a certain amount of population, when that population goes up (no matter what color of skin the people have) the crime rate will also go up,.
Simple. But it is and I will go to my death saying that it is racist for you to correlate the minority with the crime rate especially with the name thing. Shows racism to put it into print, and defend that position. Ignorance at best.
