I get it just fine.What you're saying is a white man should show respect to thugs or get his ass kicked, right?
Listen up! You don't get respect from demanding it.
No, you listen as opposed to rewording what I stated and telling me "what I said."
I don't care if one is white, black or in between. This is not about race
I have been to almost every state and most metropolitan areas in this country including Baltimore and to quite a few places outside of the country.
Usually if one is congenial and polite they will get the same in return. If they walk into a situation with an attitude, they usually will get a attitude in return.
Now, are you implying that the majority of the population of Baltimore are thugs?
Or maybe you meant to say" black is synonymous with "thug"?
You friend did not differentiate, he just stated that "blacks in Baltimore are hostile towards white people" which is a stupid generalization and typical for him.
I know plenty of people of various races there that get along just fine.
Now do you get it?
Many, not all, blacks in Baltimore ARE hostile towards whites; more so due to recent events.
Generalization? yeah. It sure is, but I make a lot of decisions based on probabilities and odds.
I know that I'm about 6 times more likely to be assaulted by a black man as a white. I am on guard and aware of my surroundings when I'm in minority neighborhoods.
