The same way a person who lives in a town that's 5% white does.

So Plano, Texas, Flossmoor, Illinois, and Ladera Heights, California are not good places to live?

White people are pretty are pretty awful. Except to have as neighbors. They're pretty good for that.

I like diversity, yet I currently live somewhere that is about 90 percent white. I'm not sure why it's that important, as I'm not forcing anyone to live where they don't want to live.

Exactly. Dems cry about White flight, yet where do they opt to live? They preach to us that we need diversity and yet when given a choice they like the elitist white neighborhoods.
I don't fault anyone for where they want to live. I fault those who criticize others for their choices.
It is human nature to seek the company of those you have or think you have most in common.
For example I wouldn't want to live in a neighborhood of predominantly Russian immigrants. I am not Russian, I don't speak Russian and I don't want to learn to speak Russian.
I grew up on a farm. Guess where I live? Farm country...

How diverse is Trump Tower?

How about Georgetown, where Ivanka is looking for a house?

So what? 99% of the country doesn't border Mexico. Pathetic deflection attempt away from Obama, you'd think after 8 years of practice you'd be better at it.
