Default Race War

Apparently there was a racial turf war between black and hispanic inmates at a California jail. I have always known that racism was not a white on minority thing as liberals would have you believe, but racism goes in all directions from all groups of people.
After seeing this incident on the news, it got me thinking about what I have noticed in the city where I live in. Even though it is very diverse, I have noticed that asian, black, and hispanics tend to stick with there own and not integrate with one another. It will be interesting to see what happens in this country as America becomes more diverse.

CASTAIC, California (AP) -- Nearly 2,000 inmates rioted at a Southern California jail, throwing mattresses and banging heads against bunk beds, in an uproar that officials said stemmed from racial tensions. One inmate was killed.

Black and Hispanic inmates were being segregated and a lockdown was ordered systemwide, Sheriff Lee Baca said.
