Gee, that's funny; a lot of them think it ruined their neighborhoods too.

I'm guessing that you'd like to go back to the good old days of "whites only" and "colored only" signs and separate drinking fountains and so forth.

Always interesting to see who's in the rah-rah section for apartheid, after so many have fought and died fighting against it.

Isn't it amazing how other ethnic communities can thrive and prosper without promoting racial and ethnic segregation and pining for the good old days?

Believe me when I say that you really don't want it to be like the good old days, because those good old days really weren't that good in the final analysis.
