Wow, I had no idea. But i'm sure that if she wasn't a rookie cop, she wouldn't have had that reaction. unfortunately I know a lot of people who would agree w/ her and not Brian; many in my own family.JoJohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18165375435543044068noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27283804.post-210513842325515232008-07-27T18:54:00.000+01:002008-07-27T18:54:00.000+01:00It never fails to amaze(and disgust)me that the co...It never fails to amaze(and disgust)me that the colour of someones skin can provoke such hatred.<BR/><BR/>Thankfully there are people like you and Brian who won't just sit back and watch.Elizahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03959658025489249091noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27283804.post-14833639320686229422008-07-27T15:35:00.000+01:002008-07-27T15:35:00.000+01:00and it's REALLY obvious, here in southeast michiga...and it's REALLY obvious, here in southeast michigan, where the "city" is over 90% black and the suburbs are mostly white. people's perceptions, (racism) unfortunately, really screwed up this area.fenwayspalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04114597014268136933noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27283804.post-80997816924881367182008-07-27T14:52:00.000+01:002008-07-27T14:52:00.000+01:00Snarkangel is right...Sadly racism is alive and we...Snarkangel is right...Sadly racism is alive and well.Janehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05186511870988332347noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27283804.post-83297464552346383202008-07-26T23:16:00.000+01:002008-07-26T23:16:00.000+01:00Yes, racism is alive and well, even today in 2008....Yes, racism is alive and well, even today in 2008.

I was fortunate as I grew up in Hawaii where there were racial problems but not to that extent. Racists generally have a hard time in Hawaii as it is filled with mixed cultures and people of mixed ethnicity. There is reverse discrimination against Caucasians there sometimes and the Japanese - who constitute 50% of the population - tend to suffer some resentment as well but mostly we get all get along fine.<BR/><BR/>Nothing on a scale like what you've described. Having moved to Michigan, however, I was rather shocked to know that only 35 miles away a group of white supremists were having a demonstration back in 1995. I found that to be a bit disturbing in this day and age and to be so close to it. <BR/><BR/>It's also quite upsetting to know that some people are still as stupid as to tell me to my face, knowing full well I, a third generation Japanese American, am married to Caucasian man, that they are against interracial marriages. <BR/><BR/>I just walked away thinking, wtf? Now I wish I would have said, I'm against lobotomizing people as they come up with stupid ideas like being against interracial marriages.Music Wenchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06004584461266777776noreply@blogger.com
