Fib, yes I do live in a majority white neighborhood in the City.
Just yesterday three African American men, in a stolen Infinity SUV pulled off three daylight armed robberies.
There is a young boy named Ryan Rush that was severely beaten in the park by two African American men for a cell phone. Witness states the offenders commented "let's get that goofy looking white boy". No hate crime and min. sentence.
Four children under the age of 13, held at gun point, 11:30 in the morning, on school property, a Saturday morning. No gun charges. Why?
All three of these events were in a predominantly white neighborhood by African Americans that lived at least 10 miles from their targets. Why?
Do you make me a racist for asking why? Do you see why some whites are? It's obvious why whites show fear. I, and others know, it's not everybody but the violence is so high in these neighborhoods in the City you would have to be foolish not to be aware of your surroundings.
Really, I am not a racist and work with everone. I will not judge a book by it's cover. There are plenty of blacks that I trust my life with on a daily basis and plenty of white co-workers that I know won't be there to help me if I needed it. The best guy I work with, bar none is black. I trust this man with my life, trust me when I say my life. My children count on him to help me through a shift so that I may go home to raise them. I also raise my children not to see color. They don't.
