Perhaps you look like a criminal, I live in a small town and never experienced racism. I even helped an old lady close her store. :up:

one time while I was waiting for the bus some drunk dudes drove by and yelled out Niggers, I looked around and realized I was the only person there :lol:

I don't know about stores, most shops could careless.

I have to admit I'm pretty racist sometimes before I catch myself, but if I owned a shop I would watch everyone and anyone, cuz loosing money because of white person is the same as loosing from a black person.

No I have never experienced any racism in my life... and I live in a state where 98 percent of the population is white :clap: :clap: In fact I believe everyone is racist. The source of racism is the pride in one’s heritage. We put ourselves on a pedistal and believe that our differences is what makes ourselves superior. The belief that we are superior co-relates that others who are different must be inferior. We keep this belief alive by racist acts. Our fear of being inferior feeds racism. We must humble ourselves and be willing to live on an equal plane of existence of other people. Through compromise will life be truely great.
