I don't understand how my school was radically different at 40/30/20/10 or whatever, but I think the biggest joke is that CF obviously has some family that lives in an affluent neighborhood of the Twin Cities, and thus he can comment on the socioeconomic and racial composition of the environment I grew up in ldo. CF - you've never been to the rougher neighborhoods in the Twin Cities, I can guarantee that, and in a metro area of somewhere in between 2.5 m and 3 m they're going to exist no matter how many Norwegians you cram in there.

CF, the black kids who whooped your ass, beyond a shadow of a doubt would jump other black kids in the same neighborhood. Sure they did it to you because you were white, but they did it to the next kid because he was poor, or because his sister shot them down, or because his skin was chapped, or because he didn't speak english well. What you're failing to understand is that hateful people are going to find something to hate you for, and whatever they pick is really not the issue at hand.
