According to that link Oregon is 76% white, 12 hispanic, 6 asian, 2 black.

Pretty much all these groups stick to each other around here.

Hispanics are a little more spread out but they still have their own little communities.

I am not into movies that much and don't go GA-GA over movie stars and shite like YOU do....I saw her last week in the movie "The Family Guy".. Thought she was pretty and asked a few questions about her... I made that pic my avi.. It really seems to bother you for some reason..Not sure why... I think the pic is cool. If you don't like it GFY...BTW great job in hijacking your own thread dipshit......



Calm down, puppy. I'm not mad at you. No need to get aggressive with me. I'm just educating you on your poor choice of avi pic.

Hell, I even provided a more attractive pic that you can resize and use...but NOOOOOO...instead of saying thank you, you chose to let your emotions take control and resort to insults.

Peej, I believe that you're an alright human being. No need to embarrass yourself with baseless insults and emotional immaturity.

You and I can be cordial if you choose that path, bruh. Let's shake hands and push the restart button.

Race relations in my town are fine.
Always have been.


Don't believe everything you see on tv and the Internet.

You should understand that what you are arguing about is unrelated to the thread. That being said, another poster has an opinion that differs with yours on something that is strictly a matter of personal preference.

You stated your opinion, then he stated his. You would not have him having an opinion different than yours and began a mindless diatribe on why he was wrong. You were unwilling to have it any other way than having his tastes match yours. It escalated slightly.

You were wrong and owe him an apology. While I have not placed you in the douchebag category yet, I am beginning to see why so many others have.

Trumpeting black lives matter cases? A lot of these cases are very gray and it's hard to figure out who's at fault, but they're very clearly picking sides - the side against the ones sworn to protect. I think that contributes to it.

Although, I do disagree that we're worse off now than any period before hand.

Cool mo dee.

By the way, I like derailing my own threads. If I could have my way, I'd start threads about Mother Teresa and hope the topic changed to genital warts by page 3.

Used race as a political tool. It will have disastrous results.

You'll have to look it up. We have crime like any state we just don't have the violent crimes LA has.

I'll say this....outside of a couple of hoods in Oregon or Washington I can walk around anywhere and not be looking behind me like I do when I'm in NOLA.

Self segregation is natural human behavior.... People want to be surrounded by like minded individuals... Race, culture, religion, personalities are all major factors... Its all about being comfortable

Over and over and over and over and over again placed the blame on white people and "wealthy" people. Constantly bringing up race like it was ever an issue. Having the AG chase down every single case where a black guy gets shot by a white guy, but not a single one where a white guy gets shot by a black guy. I can list stuff for days
