_Used to_. KKK cleaning up a stretch of road in a rural area 30 years ago doesn't mean there's an inherently a racist police force, voted in by the county constituents, currently. That's tenuous at best. The existence of racists in a subset of an area does not mean that the entire area is racist.


Wait so is your problem that you don't understand when people say "place X is racist" they don't mean literally every single person in town is a racist?
