You'd think in 2009 we wouldn't still have to deal with that kind of shit but, nope, we still do.
Bigoted people live all over not just in the south. My wife's mom is racist and she lives in the north and God does have a sense of humor because she has black great grand children.

Really we elected a black president for two terms previously, that would mean a major turn around to become a nation of bigots. Racist just holler louder because people who care about all people are tuning them out. The less we listen to their crap and respond to it the less they will be heard. News agencies just love the drama of racist and non racist clashing, makes them money. When people no longer get the attention they need they will fade away, takes time and patience.

That's what I don't get. I want to understand how these people think, what is it about black people that turn these people into racists? Maybe if we get to the root of the problem a solution through proper conversion will be possible.
Being racist is not exclusively a black thing, people that are racist want to feel superior, they have inadequacy fears and project that upon the easiest targets or most popular targets. For me they are just plain ol' morons. Many men especially love their black sports heroes while hating all the rest of the race, I have a friend that's that way and I let him have it every time he makes a racist comment, he just can't see it. It amazes me how blind hatred makes people.
If someone was to test me using race as the premise and I found out... I might forget my Christian love and punch their lights out, because to use race as a test to me would promoting racist attitude, a test like that would be as low as it gets.

God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.
