I had an unsettling experience yesterday. After lunch in a fusion cafe with friends, in an upscale plaza in the extremely liberal sanctuary city where I live, two of us went outside...she smoked and I vaped.
A man and woman approached us, although she stayed back a few feet, not as though she wasn’t interested but as though she wasn’t worthy. He asked my friend for a cigarette and stood and talked while he smoked.
In the time it took for him to smoke the cigarette, he informed us of an’operations training camp’ in our state where he and others prepared for the coming conflict (unspecified combatants but made fairly clear by other comments), about how a nearby larger city was falling to the hoodlums of a particular race, how it was necessary to be ready to battle for your own race.
Dear God.
I do not believe that piece of human waste is indicative of anything but his own mental disease, but it’s certain he’s not the only one. I made it clear I thought he was mad and walked away. But it shook me. It’s not as bad as I’m told but it’s not as good as I would like to think.

It sounds like fear and a lack of faith in the powers that be. As well as perhaps some trained soldiers have difficulty when back in civvy street and are basically trained to fight and have no war to fight so make one. Like Rambo.

@Mamapolo2016 😔yes, but it feels so daunting at times.😔

@Angeleyez Yes, it does. Frustrating and maddening for all of us. Everybody has to choose and walk their own path.
I was absolutely floored last evening by a thread started by Azificair, concerning millions of human beings in India in what is variously called bonded servitude, indentured servitude or slavery.
It was completely new information for me. So I don’t know even every BIG thing.
I have made a personal commitment to listen and not dismiss anything without consideration. Except racist survivalist mad dogs in a parking lot.

@Mamapolo2016 This kind of thing is happening more and more, and one of the reasons many of us fear Donald Trump is because the racist comments he has made have emboldened such people. I’ve disagreed with the politics of previous presidents but I’ve never before felt such hatred coming from the supporters both as a woman and as a person of color. I was a small child during the closing days of legal segregation and the thought of those attitudes becoming popular again in my lifetime breaks my heart.

I understand what you said. That experience yesterday was a spine-chilling time-warp feeling.
There is more I want to say, but I feel like it’s important enough, even just between you and me, to think about it first.

society is getting so online situated that racism doesnt really touch people anymore in the same way. Sometime you'll see these racists just spewing hate speech on youtube vids in desperation to get their point across, and I just click away :D
