[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Where in the world is it a law you must be friendly. You are only required to be civil. even in an all XXXX neighborhood, friendly is not required. this is a civil society[/quote]

There's no law.  Heck there isn't even an unwritten rule that you have to be even civil to your neighbors.  But my post was explaining why some people don't want to move into a neighborhood where they are the distinct minority in the neighborhood.  This is why people want to have at least a significant minority of people of their race before they consider living in such neighborhoods.  I'm Asian.  I don't want to be the only Asian family or one of two Asian families in a neighborhood of 50-300 homes.  I can certainly understand black families who don't want to do the same.  As difficult as it is being Asian in a white society, it's far harder to be black in a white society.   I suspect that most of you who are criticizing OP for wanting diversity in any neighborhood she considers have never lived in an area where you are the minority.  Your white privilege and majority attitude are shining bright.[/quote]

You'd be wrong in that I'm AA. I live where I want and how I want to live. I don't let anyone dictate that. You all keep on with the feeling a sense of community must mean everyone looks the same. Way to be progressive. [/quote]

Your response only makes me question why anyone would judge someone else's preferences.

And why you don't like living around other AAs.  Way to be progressive.[/quote]
