My thoughts exactly.

It' 2008 for crying out loud!! For the life of me I just cannot understand the mindset of people who take issue with this. What possible difference does the color of ones skin make? Living in the deep South I have found this to be more prevalent and unfortunately some of my own relatives are guilty of being this way. It's like talking to a brick wall trying to get through to them. Actually, talking to a brick wall is more pleasant than talking to some of them!
