#1 But these experiences stayed with me and made me think. Were these two individuals simply angry at life? Were they looking for an argument with a white male? Do I come across as an arrogant, aggressive white man, even when I don't think I am?

Angry at life? Come now my friend, we all know you are a wealthy Garden Route landowner, farmer, or hotelier. Tribalist, class warfare has targeted you for special treatment. The lunatics now run the asylum.

Angry at life? No, they're better off now than ever before. They have no idea that you were an "anti-apartheid activist" nor do they care. They're angry at you.

Continue to confront your new masters and you'll likely have a knobkierie shoved up your arse. Die hoenders huis toe om te slaap (the chickens have come home to roost). Enjoy !

#2 Never. Just like “The South” in the US.

#3 Point of fact, I have never dealt with a black clerk at an ABC store or BoA teller counter here in Florida. Story in there somewhere....

#4 Ref #3: Balancing the cash register at the end of shift can be problematic, and it may not involve math. Just say'n.

#7 Black Culture is a tribal culture not a civilised reciprocal culture.

#8 Ask Oprah, or any rapper that has millions to spare. They aren't ready to give up that cudgel despite enormous success.

#9 Black Culture is a tribal culture Some tribes are friendlier than others. I have read many accounts of USA born blacks visiting Africa and being received with hostility by the locals, who strongly dislike the apparent rudeness and crudeness exhibited by members of a different tribe from the USA with all that is entailed.

#10 "Black culture" in America (Chris Rock would use a different un-pc as can be word, instead of black) also has a large element of Entitlement to it.

#11 My son told me a story. He was starting his first day at a new high school when a black student confronted him and told him that he was a privileged white boy. My son replied, "Didn't I just see you step out of a BMW?". The kid responded, "You got me." Turns out his dad was a medical doctor.

They played football together and became good friends.

Don't be rude but don't get buffaloed either.

#13 Gorb,
There is a saying, "Stimulus that is not rewarded is soon extinguished."

The left uses it because it works. When people stop responding with the expected pins and needles behavior the stimulus will stop.

#14 But I kinda like watching them change direction every time I hit the shock collar.

#15 Grifters wouldn't stand at traffic lights if it didn't work.
