It's not really a race thing... people no matter what race get offended when someone different moves into their neighborhood. This same type of thing happened when Chinese-Canadians started opening up shops and restaurants in Markham in the 90s when it was a sleepy, boring, mostly white town, and it was the whites who were offended and protested how they felt they were being driven out of the community. Years later, these establishments are just as popular with whites as they are with Asians.
