I'll live, believe me. I've been called much worse. I'm a black man, married to a white woman, who lives in the progressive, liberal SF Bay Area. You know, the area full of tolerance, love, understanding and not judging others...Except, for when we woke up one day and found her car spray painted with, "****** lover" on it. And, I could go on for days about the overt racism I have received by the tolerant, progressive, liberals of this state.
