"No offense, but I don't agree with that statement at all. I lived in Utah for five years. I don't think it is any less or more racist than anywhere else."

Fair enough. I understand your point of view. I didn't wish to start an argument.

My point was that it is not justified for folks from another area to presume a state like Utah, because it is conservative, would be hostile to minorities.

I'll stand with that contention.

Utah is not more racist than anywhere else. I am saying that their is some racism in every place you go, and I don't really think there is any place that is that different than any other place.

I agree 100% that conservatives are not racist.

I used to get a laugh out of the general mentality of Utah folks who think they know everything about race when they have never lived outside of their sheltered, basically all white environment.
