Uh, do we know Zimmerman is a Republican? I know plenty of racist Democrats with guns.

In my high school it always seemed like the diehard republicans' (there weren't many, this is East LA) best friend was always a diehard democrat. I mean, most kids would say they were democrats, but they would always be friends with the most hardcore ones.

I was also the flower girl at my parents' wedding when I was 6. I have been calling my stepdad "dad" since I was 4 or 5.

Yeah. His youngness (or abuse as a child) does not excuse him, but it offers hope that he can change.

I had no idea they were in Rosemead before. Whereabouts in Rosemead were they?

I was at an airshow with my 5'11'' boyfriend and 6'2'' friend and at first it was fine because I'm 5'4'' so the height difference isn't THAT much, but after hours of having to do semi-frequent hops and skips to keep up with them OH MY GOD I WAS TIRED.

I think boyfriend waited a week or two to fart and now he's pretty much always farting.

Lots of places check ID on purchases over certain amounts. A place where I worked did.

My aunt married a white an (we're Mexicans, medium skinned) and her youngest son has blonde hair, blue eyes, and is fairer skinned than his father. She gets the nanny question ALL THE TIME.

Have I ever told you I'm pretty much your No. 1 fan? I hope that isn't too creepy.

I thought the bro ads were pretty funny. Ads aren't to portray reality or what things should be, they're to get attention. And since these aren't really offensive I'm cool with it.

Pussy Riot is a member of the religion and culture they were protesting, but more importantly, the Russian Orthodox Church response wasn't to kick them off the premises (which, though I support Pussy Riot's general message, seems like a reasonable response), they got them thrown in jail.

California does it that way and we're one of the worst =/

Everyone has individual and probably specific reasons for leaving. Lots of people are straight up racist, but most people just don't like the things that the op described, things that are unfortunately often in poor, ethnic minority neighborhoods.

Will it cheer you up if I tell you I giggled a little because I imagined you got in a fight with Jeff Bridges?

Um, some of this is kind of weird. Not like in a "oh poor white people, stop being so mean to them" way. These pictures range from white people racist/clueless to white people being silly. In the former I get the juxtaposition with black people, but in the latter it just feels like an assumption that the person is…

Both my biological dad and my sisters are republicans, but my bio dad didn't really give a shit about gay marriage while my sister supported California's Prop 8 campaign, putting up posters and everything. She's pro gay rights now, thankfully.

Yes, if you kick a minor that is relying on your for all means of support out of your house, you should be shamed. Homelessness disproportionately affects gay youth. This woman demonstrated in the most overt way that she does not care if her son dies.
