The “colorblind” folks around here need to watch old episodes of “Cops” or current episodes of “On Patrol Live”.
A cop pulls over a car for running a stop sign.

I worked in Manhattan for a LONG time. I’ve seen some bad dudes on the street.

Anyone who carries practices situational awareness. This requires a realistic assessment of the situation, and the realization that beliefs can get you mugged.
When I walked down any side street, I monitored EVERY guy or gal behind or in front of me. I didn’t care if they were white, black, puce or mauve, in a suit, wearing sweats, or in a bikini. Bad guys don’t respect the mental boundaries people establish in their minds, eg “this is such a safe town.”
The “gang of blacks vs whites ” set up is like the “if two identically qualified people interviewed for the job…” set up. It’s an irrelevant fantasy, fertilized by elites to keep us warring.
An error is when leftists say all blacks are guiltless. The corollary, is thinking all whites are spotless. Collectivism always sucks.
