Gang issues in OC are generally between rivals of the same ethnic groups, particularly mexican and vietnamese.
There are gangs in OC that promote "race wars", in particular the Aryan Brotherhood and the PEN1. Both are out and about and are very real. So much so they are on the U.S Gov terrorist watch list.

Well, when I follow the trail to any "race wars" I always end up at the footsteps of a gang or a prison.

So what I'm saying is, if there is any racial tension, I find that it originates from the gang/prison culture. Outside of that I don't see any issues.

Like I said, the skinheads exist, but they have little to no power/voice/anything here. I'd consider their threat level as negligible, and I'm saying that as one from a Jewish background.

Really? I can't believe anyone even asks this question.
It's per individual, not a whole race. There are uneducated people everywhere but
no one is having a "race war" come on. Really?

You don't need a majority of people to effect any kind of a race war, whether it be a hot war or a cold one.
Wow !

But if the lady who bumped into him were caucasian. He would have turned to look at her and then said nothing and would have simply shrugged it off.
How do you know that? Did you see any caucasian ladies bump into him? Thats a very racist assumption youre making there.
