Yes, that's how it works. That's how life works. People with an open mind, who travel, or at least have to interact with other kinds of people, will all tell you the same thing. It's the people who don't travel outside of their bubble, be it their hometown, or their social media/message board of choice, or their club/organization - whatever echo chamber they refuse to venture from, they just view other people and the world as whatever they're told by their small, insular group. Or by their negative experience with a single person or a few people who were somehow representatives of their entire organization/club/kind. It's natural that it's this way. But it's also, of course, unfortunate.


Doesn't change the law though.
