If this were a troll thread, the OP would be trolling us. That isn't happening. If anything the title is attracting more attention to the positive conversation about Cumberland going on.

I am not going to complain about that.

What is the Racial Culture like in Western Maryland? ..............it starts a better conversation then "Racism in Western Maryland"

Exactly... typical. More baiting as usual

Half -- if not more -- of thread titles on CD are statements, not a question.....are they baiting too? I'll answer that. No doubt some are. But whether something falls in to that category is only and opinion. Not fact.

I agree.

With the climate we have had these last few weeks, I'm saddened a bit to see Chief Sipwiaac's question attacked. ...... It's a fair question and I have the same one.
