Thanks for your views providing some historical allowance for your perceptions/beliefs.

I admit--I'm surprised by the poll numbers, but it does make me happy that I put it out there!

Whoops- sorry. Yes, it is good to put it out there.

Personally, I'd have to say no (I actually checked the item with "other"). My personal response is due to my historical perspective and race/ethnicity in the US. I can't seem to get past the history!

But, I also know that under some circumstances (refer to June's example, once more), I probably would "refuse" if I was asked to do something that just was against my values and I felt I could somehow be associated with it. I would also say that "it might be better for you to go to another business for that."
