...its a subtle form of harrassment...when they stand right next to you for a prolonged period of time ..its intentional ...other times with wide open pews a single individual will choose to sit directly behind you (me) ..also intentional, not incidental, nor coincidental ..I haven't figured out what their purpose is other than that it does have a purpose and I don't think its friendly ..its definitely not comforting..its like having a security guard stand next to you thru a church service..where u came willingly (& come on a regular basis)...it may be cultural.. I know some people in L.A. are itching for Mahoney the white priest to move on ..a new bishop has been chosen already (Latino, born in Mexico) ..so it could be related to anti-White sentiment ..(people perceive me as "white", too , which is a negative in los angeles where so-called minorities are the majority...) and it shouldn't happen on CHRISTMAS DAY of all times...c'mon dude, have a seat ..or stand in the back ..
