And you'll find exactly what the guy said: a few people are racist, a much larger number are not. And it's really easy to not be racist in the Pacific Northwest -- there aren't any black people to be racist about! Before you start telling me about the 4% minority population in Tacoma or Vancouver... I love it when people who live in lilly-white places like Canada, Europe, and the Pacific Northwest start talking about racism. Why don't you try walking a mile. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
