I grew up as a minority (ultra minority) literally the only black kid in school and town. And it was a very liberal area in NY (Syosset, Long Island). My dad was blue collar union but a fair and honest man. My mom was white collar and at the forefront of digitizing medical records. I have been a lifelong conservative (43 going on 44).

I have almost always been treated better by white people, Hispanics, Asians, than black people. It's without fail and it is to this day.

Some of my best friends are Mexican. I don't believe no one is not racist. Especially by today's idiotic standards. I take people on a case by case basis- however, based on personal experience, I'm geared to be more open or friendly towards certain groups. It's not racist. It's experience combined with common sense.

I'm not Hispanic. If you're referring to my username. It's a song by Queens of the Stone Age.
