The subtle and not so subtle racist tone



I know this wasn’t the main point of your post, but it really irritates me when people jump on the “racist” point. Generally, most people don’t feel at ease with being in or near any poor, run-down area with a high rate of crime. Students don’t really fear the areas south of the Midway because of BLACK PEOPLE, they fear it because people shoot each other down there.

I myself am enlightened enough to see completely past race; I fear all poor people equally.
