It's been realy interesting watching my street react to this driveby event. Some white and asian folks make the effort to distinguish between the knuckleheads (who happen to be African American) and other African Americans on the street. Others just lump us all together and avoid us. My street is really diverse. We have about equal parts of: - Whites (Irish or German) - Cape Verdean - Vietnamese - African American (US and Caribbean) - Hispanic (Puerto Rican and Dominican) So, on any given data, there are about 5 different languages spoken on my street: English, Spanish, French, German, Vietnamese, and French. The Vietnamese seem to avoid everyone else and many don't speak English. So we'll have to print Crime Watch posters in 3 languages. My life is rarely dull.
