How should this white man respond? I know how I would respond....
Another thing to vote up/down about in your Homeowner's Association! Hooray!
Really, people just don't like people as much as we pretend. And with 7 billion of us, we're living on top of each other now, and, well, literally smelling each other. This tension "floor" has filled upwards and it doesn't take as much to make us snap as the old days.

Can you imagine how bold and demanding muslims will become as their numbers grow...
Look what white dudes demanded from the Native Americans 200 years ago...
We weren't 'living on top of each other and smelling each other 200 years ago....there was planty of wide open space out west..
I guess there was never any violence or plundering among the Indian tribes until the evil white man came on the scene?....NOT
