I'm generally a nice, and considerate person to all kinds of people in general; that's how I was raised. I also will be assertive, and even nasty if I feel I must be esp to counter cruel /or racist, sexist people.

Sometimes you just can't "make nice" with some of these people.
I do understand that sometimes that kind of patience etc does bring a chang of heart - I've read genuine stories of ex white sumpremisists. Not often - but it has happened.

We'll have to see. I'm not expecting much, and eyes open for whatever crap they'll probably pull. Ugh.
