I'm sorry, but we were discussing specifically flying in and out of Southern California. Did you have bad experiences there as well
Pacific Breeze? My posts were limited SPECIFICALLY to that area. If you go back and read the post, you'll be aware of that little fact. Also, clueless or not, I still contend that the way you treat people can greatly affect the way people treat you. Of course abuses in power happen all the time, in many different situations. So I'm not contending that it NEVER happens. But in Southern California, which my post addressed, which we were SPECIFICALLY discussing, I have NEVER had an instance of someone treating me badly based on the color of my skin. Again, if you carefully read the posts,
Pacific Breeze, this is what Mira was contending. So while I may be clueless in your eyes, I happily travel in and out of SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA. And I have yet to be harrassed by any hispanics who hate me because I'm a white woman.
Whatever.
