Things are like that in the Chicago area with gangs. Most gangs here are either black or Hispanic, but I am not going to call police or flow someone just because they are walking through my neighborhood and are black or Hispanic. I do think that having that attitude is unreasonable and racist.

My understanding from people who've lived in Orlando is that it's got quite a few racial problems across the board. I'm not talking about the police, I mean just as a city. Hey, Atlanta does too, mostly due to history, not by any conscious decision by the population to be assholes. My understanding is that Orlando also has a pretty bad gang problem too and gangs tend (usually) to be isolated by race. So it's totally reasonable to expect that most people living there (across the board) are not completely neutral in their racial attitudes. -Cameron .... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/message.cfm/messageid:349102 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/unsubscribe.cfm
