Looking Up From The Ghetto
I do my shopping at the rich man’s grocer, rather than the stores serving the ghetto.I cook my own meals and therefore prefer fresh meats and produce. Ghetto Lion, for example, has mostly prepared foods that are popular with ghetto dwellers. Anyway, at the checkout, a dough-faced fat girl with a pin in her nose address me with “wassup.”
I’m led to believe that the pin in her nose signals her availability to black men. Almost always, the pram-faced girls in the ghetto have caramel colored kids, along with the nose pin. Perhaps it is a coincidence. Her sing-songy language told me she was a ghetto girl. White people talking black always sound odd to me. It’s like hearing a Chinese guy speak Spanish. There’s something unnatural about it. I speak some ghetto so we got along fine enough as she rang up my purchases. at The Z Blog

Your Say
I have taken to driving about 5 miles to the other side of town to go the grocery store. Even within the same chain, it makes a difference. Even at Wal*Mart.

Down around my place thirty miles north of the Mex border the demographics in our fourteen thousand pop town is a third Meskins, a third senior citizens and the rest locals in standard town employment. Needless to say the shopping choices are limited and accurately directed at the consumers. our home-town grocery store is the best around for fresh meats, produce, so forth. maybe we can get canned goods a few cents cheaper at the Wal-Mart but why bother? We support our local merchants. We have thirty-two churches and fifteen restaurants. The restaurants are mostly Meskin and the rest small mom & pop or fast foods.
Most of the counter help is no-childs-left-behind so making change can be dicey.
We don't have it as bad as some other places.

Yup.
I carp and whine constantly about being surrounded by brain-washed "progressives," but one thing for sure:
If you wanna be surrounded by white people, move to a liberal small town. They're so busy touting Diversity they don't even notice everybody looks alike.

Or you can live in a small rural county like we do with 15k people total and supposedly 8 of em are negro's though I very rarely see them. I don't keep track but I'd guess I see colored folks maybe 2-3 times a year, mostly when we go to the big city far away. Can't say I miss them or our lives are deprived because of it. I bet we're better off. I mean, what good can come from scourges? Same with mexicans and orientals. It's not unusual for us to go a week or more without seeing anybody, cept wild animals. I like it this way. Less aggravation. About 99% of all the problems I've ever had were created by other people, and the rest weren't problems at all, in that context.
