“I don’t think there was any racism until Obama got elected. We never had problems like this … Now, with the people with the guns, and shooting up neighborhoods, and not being responsible citizens, that’s a big change, and I think that’s the philosophy that Obama has perpetuated on America.”

Sheesh. In Detroit, in the late 1960s, it was possible to see poorly whitewashed-over signs reading “Negro entrance” on the side of stores; I passed one every day for years as I rode a bus to high school in the city’s downtown.
And here in the south the racism and de facto segregation are even more overt.
