In response to a private message I received, I'll post this to you.
Let's compare -- when I was 19, a black man stole my purse, when I was 21, a black man attacked me with a knife and tried to rape me, when I was 23 a black man attacked me with a knife and stole my purse, and when I was 25 a black man just swung at me with a knife.
Do I win in the "I was attacked by a black man" contest?
If I can get look at a black man and judge him by what's under the skin, you can, too.
Yes, you win the contest. Well, maybe a tie. If what you say is all true, and you still claim to be able to walk down a street past a group of black men and approach them with a completely open mind and un-jaded eye, then maybe you are a better person then I am...in an ethereal sense, but I hope you don't mind if I pray for your safety.
