You're a good-looking white chick, though!
I'm assuming location and the type of people we were around played a huge role. We moved to a medium sized city in Ohio, not a border town where there may be tension of that type. Also, we lived in middle class suburbia, surrounded by decent, normal people - not uneducated shady people.
Yes, we are Caucasian, perhaps that played a big role as well. Though my parents had and still do have very heavy accents, and everyone who knows us knows we are South American.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
