(6,086 posts)the fact that the surrounding communities are mostly caucasian....The neighboring communities are QUITE mixed and can, depending on where you look, turn rather brown, black or yellow. I live in the capital of California and in a VERY nice neighborhood/high value homes. Larry? Guess what? Human beings are human beings. Unfortunately, they murder, they steal, they rob, they lie and they Hate, (wonder if you know anyone this last definition would fit, hmmm?) and it just shows your actual ignorance when you assume that the ONLY reason that the kids in my area get in trouble, (and happen to be white), is because the surrounding communities have been somehow contaminated by the insidious seepage of crime ridden and violence prone black folks. Hate to tell you this but our skin color isn't the only thing that generally doesn't rub off. Like I said, your stay here might be a wee bit uncomfortable but hey, Enjoy it anyway!
