Gezzzzzzz....ok...My job is to go to all the bars around here and collect the money from the jukes, pool tables, games etc. I've been doing it for 15 years now and I go to almost all the minority bars and resturants in North Florida...so yes, I have many minority friends...from the owners to the regulars to the hookers out front. I go to several violent neighbourhoods, it used to worry me at first but over the years you get to know who's who. Two places I go to, the owner pulls out a shotgun or pistol and lays it on the bar until I get done collecting. I live in a small city and I see these "minorites" in stores, on the street, ball fields, movies etc. and we always say hi or yack for a bit. As for being from a lilly white area...yes they do have them...they hide behind walls and gates and their kids go to private schools and they are shielded from any form of violence...you may have seen the other side of life...but I bet it was from afar, or from some book and I bet you'll have a differant opinion when drugs hit your family or loved ones or realitives...you'll see...Live in that world for years and then you can preach against drugs being not so bad....ok I'm done here...all we are doing is getting nowhere....but if I ever see you in person and you call me a racsits to my face....I'll knock you out cold!!!!!!
