Is white flight really about crime or about blacks ?
In the Bay Area, whites have long since fled Oakland and the excuse has been crime, drugs, & pathology. Okay ! Nowadays, about 50 minutes drive to the south bay, you have a San Jose California with crime & drugs & loud noisy parties and yet whites are still living there (and have been for decades now) and show no signs of a mass exit. I'm wondering why ? Is this because Oakland is mostly black (with black gangs) while San Jose, Ca. is mostly Mexican & Vietnamese (with Mexican & Vietnamese gangs - that whites will hang out with). Any thoughts here ?

For some it is. There are dirt balls in every race/ethnicity and, apparently, you found them. Some of us would be fleeing from them, too.

Gas is going up. They will be flying back soon.

I wouldn't want to hang out with any gang and any decent white person would feel the same. It may be more about the cost of moving, the economy, and/or unable to relocate due to their job. Just because somebody wants to move doesnt mean they always can.

It's about racism. White flight is not the only type of racial flight. Many blacks are fleeing the west coast because of hispanic and asian immigrants. They use the same excuses.

You know what' I've always wondered that myself. I thinks and this is my opinion that whites may relate to to Asians and Mexicans more. I mean were darker than the Mexicans and the Asians are. And then maybe the Mexicans and the Asians except the whites better than blacks do. I don't know. Maybe you should do some research on that question. Inquiring minds want to know.

It is typical. Many whites are a dieing race and are scared of being breed ed out by blacks. There daughters and wives want these black men and they by moving away it will keep them from them. However, they forget these women will secretly drive to these men, just like how many white men secretly admire black women.

I'd like to fly away from where I live. This hell hole is full of "blacks" and "whites" who are BOTH a*s holes.
