@contentandwell I have seen the more conservative in the Northeast and now the Liberal in Calif. But a lot of eastern folks have migrated to here . My daughter in law is of India hertitage and is Muslim so everytime like 911 the Muslim community there houses are egged. Her parents place was everytime . So I think prejudice is all over and different in the areas of the country . Down South it is a different prejudice .

@lioness. A Trader Joe’s opened in our town last year but I’ve probably only been there about 3 times. I buy a lot of fresh vegetables and meat and those are not things that Trader Joe’s is known for. When I do go there, I end up buying some of their yummy snack foods, and I do not need that!

@lioness. I’m from the Boston area and with all the strong collegiate presence there it tends to be pretty liberal. Southern NH is getting more liberal because a lot of people from MA have relocated here.
I don’t think that my son-in-law’s parents experienced anything like egging but I don’t know. There are many people of Indian heritage here and I think people do differentiate them from those of Arab heritage. The people I have known from Arab countries are all good people too, but some people generalize of course. My transplant surgeon is from Syria. He’s great and extremely gentlemanly. Going to MGH is like going to the United Nations.
