No apologies needed and you’re right. My ignorance is appalling.

All flaming aside, Pittsburgh is a very interesting city to visit. It is a bit on the old side, however it has a very varied population and cultural background going back to pre-civil war.

You would have to live in Pittsburgh to understand the response to the G20 protestors that were bussed in. There was a great deal of foreboding, but the residents remained quiet until the first window was broken (Pamelas), then all heck broke loose with residents chasing down the protestors. The police received complete support from the residents. The attitude was not in our city.

There are many frustrating things about this city, however race relations is not one of them.
