I'm not saying that they directly when speaking with me do this. When I was driving home today there are neighbors that live around the block, they were out in the road, didn't move for atleast 2 minutes. Do they not know what respect is for your neighbor?

For all of you idiots that say : "respect is earned" You suck. This is an isolated incident with strangers!!! How do you recommend that I earn respect when I don't know these people, have never seen them before? If I beep, i'll be conceived as impatient. If I yell out the window i'll be seen as , here comes....DISRESPECTFUL. Is it too much to ask. Perhaps these incidents are why they still need black history month.

Thats exactly what it is...disrespect for others. Or stupidity.*

They know they generate a sense of fear or insecurity in some white people due to stereotyping and if they sense you have these misgivings and are so 'snooty' as to still have these racist tendencies then they will **** with you with it. If you slowly go around them like you don't mind they blocked the road, but you still need to move along, then they will respect that more than some guy cowering behind and obviously afraid of an encounter. Nothing ever happens from an encounter. They can sense your hatred as well as your non-hatred of them.

Not necessarily, we don't always treat blacks the way they want to, so maybe they are paying back. But you could be right, in middle school i practically only hung out with blacks and whenever they would see their friends and i would go with them, their friends would look at me like i am some kind of freak. There really is a lot of racism these days, but hang in...it probably just is temporarily.
Hope this helps!

Yes. Absolutely, positively. How many times have you heard about a black-on-white murder or rape where the suspect is asked why he did it, and he says "because she white"?
Blacks are loud and obnoxious, and they hate you because you're white. They go out of their way to disrespect you. It is their nature.

i doubt it's anything to do with race, do they always do this to you or do they always do this to all the white ppl in your neighborhood? i think they are just idiots, dont take it personal if it only happened once.

You have to earn respect by your own behaviour. It is not something that is due to you automatically.

No, we treat you poorly because of your improper use of the english language.
