Precisely. In terms of my home area, the southernmost two counties of California (O.C. and San Diego) aren't as progressive as the Bay Area when it comes to racial matters. Back in the early 1960s, before fair housing came into play on the national level, SoCal voters did pass restrictive covenant laws.
Although I have an idea of why that thread was alerted. It was a reasonable discussion, except for the occasional individual who hasn't got the message that it should stay out of such topics.
