Nah, sometimes they just beat up the non-black guys. I've seen the
results of threatened and actual violence against non-black guys for
daring to date a "sister."

Well, the Virgin Islands actually causes more problems. They want to
retire near family, not away from it. But the DC area is too pricey.
They want to live as well as they are living now, but they won't be
able to pull it off on their retirement income.

Unfortunately, all the towns they find geographically, educationally,
and architecturally appealing are just south of the Mason-Dixon line.
