You're not allowed to sense a pattern. That would be you-know-what-ism.
“You’re not allowed to sense a pattern. That would be you-know-what-ism.”
Real-ism? :)
I was chuckling watching the story. The white news anchors show the video of the white clerk getting knocked over, and cut away to the white reporter, who interviews some white passers by (cheeks clenched hoping they didn’t say anything racist), and everybody just smiled and pretended to not notice any common denominator among the thieves.
Head in the sand. As if pretending they didn’t notice would prevent it from happening again.
