Reply to comment by FuckTheCrabfeast in What can you tell me about the Bedford area and/or surrounding areas? by FuckTheCrabfeast

I told people I lived in Pittsburgh.

They replied. "how can you live there with those n*****". "aren't you afraid your wife will be raped by those n*****" How can you stand the city.

And it happened a lot more than once. The brazen openness was the most shocking.

Well, damn!

Like I totally get not wanting to be in a big city or even think it's dirty, polluted, whatever if you grew up in a rural area, but yeah, that's totally not cool.

This is true. Rural PA is super racist/conservative :(. I can’t tell you how many times people would come up to me and just say “so how about that Obama?” And expect me to agree and say something nasty. It has decent, polite, open minded people too though, and once you find them, it’s a nice place, generally to live.
