Staying in Evansville.
"Indiana Black Expo generates $38 million for the city."
Always follow the money and you'll get your answer.
Is $38 million for an entire weekend(or however long it lasts) even that much money? Subtract all the crime, $$$ for extra LEOs and businesses closing down and I wonder what the number is?

from my experiences in situations where a crowd is all black and a black guy shows up with white people, que might not be welcome either.BTW, Que that's a really nice offer and you seem like a great guy, but for some reason or another I don't think I'd feel very welcome there.

we once got bounced out of a club and were told to "take your uncle tom with you". ive had similar situations 3 or 4 times.
Even if you're correct, the city would never be able to shut IBE down or refuse to host it. Could you imagine if they tried?
I admire the Country folks, you guys have it made.. You dont even know.
IL and I decided to start up a "legal gun owner's expo"...because we're a minority.
Will it fly?
Can we create a Gun owners expo?
depends on the crowd i guess. the whole issue started bc i danced with a black girl. i felt like it was 1950s alabama, but reversed.I am really surprised by that. Most of the places I have been where one black man or woman shows up in a group of white folk, everyone bends over backwards to welcome him/her. In fact I often wonder if they will make the guy uncomfortable being overly friendly. But that has just been my experience.

You have to be registered, and above the age of 18, no issues.
This video is incredibly violent, but shows the nature of the 'hood' and certainly what you can expect in Indy and Black Expo.
I wonder why these Asians were singled out? Easy victims?
in all honesty i would have killed him.

Never heard about Oktoberfest? Really? If something is even remotely German, they throw a party for Oktoberfest! The Greek Festival is usually all over the local news. The French Festival was practically in my backyard for 8 years, and was bigger every year. And yes, the others could advertise more than just on the local TV stations and local papers.
Yes, I have attended many of these events, and will continue. No event is 100% crime free. There are always a few bad apples (drunks, idiots, etc...). When would I chose to not attend an event?
- when previous experience has told me I am not welcome
- when the local and national news reports an increase in violence during the event
Would you really suggest that I take my wife and infant daughter for a walk wound the circle after dark on THIS Saturday evening?
I wondered about this. How much of this guy leaning into my car punching me in the face do I put up with before I put one between his beady little eyes? I think I would have had it in hand when I saw him approaching and his big fat mouth running.
