I not implying that race should justify that feeling. I would be just as annoyed if it was a group of beautiful blond-haired, blue-eyed woman living next door to me and trashing their house and yard.

Not to get all pedantic, but I consider all feelings justified.

I'm very, very easy to annoy - and as such, I can very easily sympathise with that feeling. But it's key to separate what's racial and what's cultural - because that will lead to less racism.

Annoyed… but intrigued.

Yeah, I might be more inclined to teach them about "proper" behavior
