Subject: Re: Affirmative Action
It is always there. I think it is MUCH less than when I was growing up. But it isn't gone, and likely never will be. At least not completely.

1poorkid encountered it a few times when she worked in a sandwich shop. They would be mean to her, but nice to the white girl (1poorkid is clearly Asian). I never really see it because I don't think anyone would dare show it in my presence. Or maybe it's "ok because they are with that white guy". Dunno. If I witnessed a racist attitude towards my family, that person would have a problem on their hands. I'm not shy about speaking my mind. I'm the guy who calls out "back of the line" when someone tries to cut...and that's trivial compared to discriminating against my ladies.
