As a southern black man, I just cant buy the PNW being as accepting as people claim. It's easy to claim "tolerance" when there arent many "others" around to begin with. In my experience, I sense the most racial undertones when I'm in places where there arent many other blacks around.
Throw all the stereotypes out the window. In "intolerant" Mississippi, I'd feel much more welcome in some 65% black Delta town than some 95% white town in "liberal" Oregon.

Wrong. Totally wrong. You don't understand the Pacific Northwest.

How much of that has to do with you feeling more comfortable with being around people who look like you?

If. These punks are not causing trouble like Trump says or equally causing trouble then why did they choose to march in areas where they know they won't be welcome
