Numerically possible, but we would be at opposite ends of the age spectrum in our retirement community.

You would have to chase the kids off my lawn.

He sure isn’t allowed to live in many places no matter how much money he’s got. Always a way to grey out selling your place to a black, even the surgeons.

"Why is America so segregated?"

Why do birds of a feather flock together?
Why do buffalo form herds with other buffalo but not elk or deer?
Why do wolves form packs with other wolves but not foxes or bobcats?
Why do chimpanzees congregate with other chimps and not Bonobo apes?

Are buffalo racist toward elk and deer?
Do wolves hate foxes?

Why were many Native American tribes against European immigration a few hundred years ago?
Were they racist? Why didn't they want diversity?

Lots of America hate there. Remember Michelle Obama's comment?
Black culture is American culture. Period. But mainstream America likes to other Black people.

The question should be “why did America force enemies to live together? And why did it think that would work out in the long run?”

Nope. American culture is for white Europeans. Any white person will tell you - America was founded, built, and is maintained for whites first. Black culture does not align with it and is not considered American. That much whites have made clear.

You’re going to need A LOT of cocktails after seeing me in my swimwear.

I’m longer a spring chicken, after all.
