Winni Bob - do you want to build a wall around the Weirs? Every person—regardless of their ethnicity, race, or town they live in—has just as much of a right to enjoy the Weirs as you or any other old white man, myself included. What does ethnicity have to do with anything? The fact that you even felt the need to mention ethnicity or towns speaks volumes—and not about these fellow human beings you callously refer to. I would venture to guess you never even had a conversation with any of these people in order to have any factual basis for your statement that these human beings “invading” “your” Weirs are even from Lowell or Lawrence.
There comes a point where this whole concept of “unconscious racism” should just be called what it is - racism.
