People of Maine are hypocrites ? Why ? .....because black people choose not to live there ?
It seems that you are dead set on believing that the reason there are so few blacks in Maine is because Mainahs ( that is what they call themselves ) don't want them there.
It really isn't that complicated or sinister as to why more blacks don't live there.....THEY HAVE NO REASON TO WANT TO BE THERE.
The borders of Maine are just as open to blacks as any other state.....why do you insist on believing it has something to do with racism. Check out the demographics of Minnesota or upper Michigan or Montana and then come back and tell me how racist they are too.

Wait... Mr. Einstein thinks he knows how I voted or who I support? WRONG! Suck a little harder on the us-against-everyone-else teat why don't you? That's the problem with people of YOUR ilk. You assume it's either your way or the 'other' way. You are intellectually incapable of realizing that this is not a binary equation. There are more than two factions in this country. It's not the Trump nad Polishers v. HRC. Wake up.

That is stupid. If you look at the statistics of the different races versus police, there is a huge difference between black deaths versus any other race. They are stalked and either beaten or killed for minor infractions. The African American community got tired of it and organized. If YOU have a problem with your people being shot for a broken tail light, feel free to protest. But, I suspect you are more likely to sit behind a computer and bitch about other people trying to protect their own than you are to organize and practice direct action. Lazy AF.
Honestly, I didn't even get to the rest of your diatribe. Your ignorance infuriated me before I could continue. Your screen name is hella ironic, btw. It's so cold, it's frozen.

The reason people of any color usually choose not to live in Maine is because it's cold as hell for 5 months out of the year. It doesn't have many jobs and very little industry.
The cost of living is high and there is not much entertainment other than enjoying the outdoors. Other than that it's a great place to live especially if you're on welfare.
