It is difficult to "walk away" when one's neighbor pumps >120 decibels of thoroughly irritating noise into your general area at whatever hour he feels convenient, shaking the very foundation of your house.
Multiply that neighbor, and that behavior, by tens of years, hundreds of variations, and tens of thousands of examples, all from the same ethnic group (even if they do not comprise a majority of that group), and you begin to see the inevitable "annoyance" basis for low-grade racial misgivings.
It can be combatted. This is one of the reasons I delight in the company of fellows like mhking, rdb3, and others - they serve -in part- as living reminders that the... twits... I encounter daily are not the alpha to omega of black America.
But... the annoyance persists - because actively seeking such counterexamples seems to be necessary, AND IT SHOULD NOT BE.

That's easy to agree with!

Alas, some church folks have gotten as obnoxious and hazardous on the noise level! Sigh.
