How good is the relationship between Hispanics and Whites in Colorado?|102522

Is there racism between each other?

  • I would say we live in peace. Colorado is a great state, and most respect each other. There are incidents of course, but I don_t think it_s always racially motivated.

  • Some. It really depends on the situation...there are gangs. Obviously, there is tension in those situations.

    How poor people are has some influence, too. And how long a person has been here. For instance, there are large numbers of Mexican (and Central American) illegal immigrants. They catch some flak. There are many Hispanic people whose ancestors have been living in the state since before there were _Americans_ in the US, at all, so, one must give them some respect for the enterprising nature of their ancestors.

    And there_s everything in between.

    If people are open, then there_s less racism.

    There_s so many factors.

  • Yes there is. It seems to be better in the liberal urban/suburban areas (Denver/Boulder/North Suburbs) than in the more rural conservative places.

  • Probaly like in any other state

  • not really...i would say that in general whites and mexicans are cool

  • Good, but our biggest gripe is the free ride the illegals are getting, health care and etc.
  • What is the cheapest airplane ticket from San Jose to Chicago?|189634

    Me and my friends plan to go to Chicago this Chrismast but we want to save money on the airfare and possibly hotel cost, so i just want to know where can i get the cheapest price for both. Plus if you_ve been there, what are some must-go places in Chicago.

  • I live just north of Chicago and have relatives outside of San Jose.

    Best prices have been on kayak.com They compare all the different rates. For Christmas, I would buy them ASAP. Southwest is really cheap too if you don_t mind flying to Midway instead of O_hare.

    How much do you want to save on hotel? You could save a bundle if you are willing to be outside the city.
  • Are European car cigarette lighters the same as the US ones?|188567

    We will be travelling to the US this summer and have a SatNat system. I know we can get maps for the US so I assume that there isn_t an issue of using a European (German) system in the US other than possibly keeping it charged.

    There are some other questions that are similar, but some people seem to think it is no problem and others think it doesn_t work so if you have a link that would be helpful. I would like to not only know if there is a voltage issue, but if the adaptors themselves fit at all.

    Thanks!

  • These litters are now called power points, sounds cooler than having a bunch of smokers. If the plug on your GPS won_t fit, stop by Radio Shack for an adapter.

    You can get one that has battery clips on one end and proper outlet on the other.

    Good luck, enjoy the US, I enjoyed Germany for two plus years.
  • Is there anyway you can do Horse riding along the beach in Orlando?|165724

    Hiya,

    Im going to be planning a trip to Orlando next year (May/June) time and one of my dreams (might sound a little silly!) is to do horse riding along the beach (in the evening or something) and sit round a camp fire etc.

    Is there anywhere in or around Orlando that does that?

    Would be greatful for answers :)

    Thank you!

  • Orlando doesn_t have a beach, its in the dead center of Florida... but they may do it in like melbourne, cocoa beach, daytona, vero beach, st. pete beach, etc... all are between an hr to two and halfhours drive from Orlando!!!

    have a fantastic trip!

  • Sorry.........you need to travel east about 60 miles or west about 100 miles...........no beaches in orlando.........
