WHOSE FAULT IS IT ANYWAY?

Hello:

Many years ago when I was still driving a taxi in the city of Toronto, a black person got into my car and asked why it took him so long to get a taxi?  None of the taxis wanted to stop and pick him up.

I said: "The next time you are at a party and one of your black friends starts bragging about sticking some cab driver for the fare; get up and tell him that he is part of the reason why you cannot get a taxi as easily as you would like to."  

He didn't say very much for the remainder of the trip. Yes indeed, white people also try to stick up the driver sometimes, --- but not as often as younger black men do.
