EdgeMaster posted...I'm trying to be on my best behavior so I'm not gonna go into detail but just lol that white people are more likely to receive rides while hitch hiking. Just skimmed the topic, but correction yes, it's was white people asking for free rides were more likely than blacks, exception being blacks in military uniforms have same success rate for a free ride as whites. Regardless, it's basic psychology that people give free stuff or help people who are better put together. It's not really a race thing as much as a class thing. I worked at as a bouncer and we sometimes did not let black people in... before everyone loses their shit, we did indeed let blacks in who took a shower and dressed nice. We did not let in blacks with red dickies around their knees who try and wander in off the streets. Is this racism? Fuck no. Is this discrimination against social class? Debatable, but no. It's to prevent trouble, just like we wouldn't let you in if you had a face tattoo. Dgaf if you're black white or purple, never seen someone who is the life of the party, spends good money, and doesn't start fights who has a face tattoo. Point is it isn't racist, it's just bad for business and we reserve the right to refuse service to anyone. --- If you don't have anything nice to say, say it on the internet. ****poster Extraordinaire ...
