Just came back from Fort Bragg California, crazy observation.

First small vacation in 3 years, never been to Fort Bragg so the lady and I booked a room for 3 nights. This place is beautiful, went to the ocean a countless amount of times, hiked, Geocached, visited glass Beach, explored their historic downtown and tried food that I've never had before.

Every single person we've encountered was extremely kind. I enjoy a bit of 420, so we visited the dispensary, NO SECURITY, I was kind of surprised because ours always have security.then in the stores I didn't feel like I was being watched at all, which was a nice change from where I'm at. We also went to a hole in the wall pizza place where I talked to the owners and they spoke to us like we were family, even talked to us about their hardships, dreams, and everything... I was just floored how open and nice people were.

Anyways, our last night at the hotel, I'm sitting out on the Balcony watching the ocean and it dawned on me. I didn't see a single black person the entire trip. Plenty of Whites, some Mexicans, and a handful of Asians, but I didn't even hear as much as a raised voice from anyone. Usually where I'm from my head is on a swivel, I have trust issues, people are crazy ya know? But for once in my life I felt like I was able to lety guard down, I was able to hike and enjoy the scenery without having to worry.

I do have a few black friends, I'm extremely selective, they are God fearing, calm spoken men who I trust. I hate to come off as racist, but I can't shake the feeling that life was better without all that crime around, and I kind of know who is mostly to blame.
