Well i also am out and about the entire bay area and my girl works in oakland so we make our judgements based on a variety of scenes we see on a daily basis. We consistently see things that make us shake our heads. I do not believe that in modern american that there should be parts of america where people fear to tread (parts of st louis, detroit, oakland, richmond, new york etc... u know the score) but all of these places are heavily inhabbited by blacks who resent the education system and do everything they can do create an atmosphere of racism that doesn't exist (racism exists, but not in the oppressive fasion many claim). i will readily admit that there are racist people everywhere, but no one makes black people drop out of school, dress like shit and speak a foreign language. My girlfriend grew up in ghetto santa ana and went to a crappy high school where she, the white girl, was the minority. She worked hard and despite admitting to having horrible teachers most of her life, she got into, and graduated from a UC, and did not let the system hold her down like many blacks would claim in the same situation.
