Noon is scared of black people hypothesis

Possible?

Exhibit A:
This chick is from BANGKOK, a cited where people offer you fried tarantulas as they skin cobras on the street, and if you don’t get run over by a speeding tuk-tuk you can go get rolled by a ladyboy. There’s no way NOLA is scary compared to that, unless... Noon probably had no idea USA was as black as it is, especially in New Orleans.

Exhibit B: Kyle/husband’s FB has a picture of Noon with her gun and a crack about “Asian lives matter, too.” Could it be she was spooked by this past summer’s racial rage?

Exhibit C: Portland is the least black city in USA... and Noon would even like to move to Canada with the snow-gringos.

Exhibit D: When was the last time you saw Thai people chill and get along with black Americans?

Oh my Buddha.

Methinks she is making excuses to ditch hubby and stay in the US alone...

Parts of NOLA are pretty scary, especially where Kyle was living. It's just a different kind of scary than bangkok, lots of violent crimes I think is due to super natural dark energy.

onyourweddingday.....Parts of NOLA are scary? What about all those cockroaches crawling all over that apartment? Noon didn't seem to bothered by them but that would have sent me packing.

So move to a part of the city that isn’t scary. What is the different kind of scary? "Black American" scary vs. “Asian" scary? Gang banging vs. Sex trafficking?

I think a lot of foreigners that move to the US don’t have a good concept of how African the US often is, and based on their own stereotypes they get scared. I had friends in India -- real village types -- who had the opportunity to visit Canada (west coast). They had stayed mostly with other Indians settled in Canada. They claimed that one shouldn’t go out in the city after 6pm or something, because that’s "when Black people come out and walk the streets”!! I had to laugh, because they were talking about metro Vancouver area, which is a bunny rabbit compared to most U.S. cities. These people were honestly scared and assumed “everyone” (i.e. not black) was, too. We can speculate, but I don’t know where they got the idea from.

Well, as the PP said, he lived in a bad area of town. She also said she had her purse stolen (and iirc, they had been robbed as well)--that would rattle most people. And Portland, I assumed they meant Oregon, that can't be the "whitest" city in America--says a girl who grew up in an overly white town in the midwest--I think it is just something new for them to try.

Notice that I said city and you said town. Are you making the same distinction that I am?

I should have said, “City with fewest black people.” Whether it’s #1 or #10 on that list, my point is the same. Fair enough?

EDIT:
“#1”

It's not that simple to figure out

It could definitey be that she would be comfortable around a group of black medical doctors, PhD students, grade school teachers, pastors, etc.

In the high crime sections of any US city, however, it's tricky. These are snap judgments rooted in instinctual survival mechanisms more so that Archie bunker isms.
