I lived in California from age 5 to age 42. My wife was born and raised in California. We moved away in 2000. I grew up in the LA metro. Our last 3 years in California was in the SF Bay Area. We go back about once a year or more to visit family and friends.
I probably know more about California than you do and I am probably older than you are. If that is true then I know stuff that happened in California before you were born.
Please inform me of the last time anyone gave a crap about who you hung with in any state? I mean where it cause enough of a problem to be reported in the news. Because there will always be people who have a problem with other people, even if those other people are the same race. It happens. Everyone likes or dislikes people because of how the act towards them.
But no one gives a crap when a white person hangs out with a black person.
Yes, I know there are still about 3 or 4 people left in the KKK but I'm not counting them. Their opinion doesn't matter.
