Ohhh y'all keep asking questions. I missed this thread thus far and want to answer questions. Especially any you might have about Texas.



I have one for you...is Texas as racially inept as it is portrayed?? Would I get lynched or something if I visited? (being dark skinned)



Only if you're a dick.

In answer to your question....there's a tiny chance you would get lynched, nothing's beyond the realm of possibility, but a much greater chance you'd have a great time spending those Aussie dollars which are now pretty much on par with our own sinking dollar

Texas is very racially diverse with a higher than average Hispanic and black population in parts, all mixing and cohabitating. Texas is the 2nd most populated state in the US. It contains three of the ten largest US cities (or 6 out of the 25 largest cities if you want to know more.) Texas has 23.9 million people, more if you include undocumented workers. Australia has around 21-22 million people according to statistics. So.......more people more stuff is bound to happen. We have our problems, as with a lot of places, but it can be very cosmopolitan as well. As I remember, Australia has had it's history marred by it's past treatment of it's indigenous people as well as some rather sexist policies for immigration and work authorization. (I joke because I have relatives there.) wink

We do like to shoot people here in Texas. You are forewarned.

Very advisable, especially with the price of gasoline (petrol?) what it is at the moment.

Valid point. Petrol here is around $1.70 - $1.80 p/ltr
Makes riding my motorbike all the more appealing (like I needed an excuse to ride)

I don't think we're the majority anywhere anymore. Maybe in Idaho or something like that.

I could be mistaken, but I think it's that in those states whites no longer comprise > 50% of the total population, but neither does any other single ethnic group.
