White woman branded a racist for asking black man walking in her neighborhood if he was lost

[Hutch Starskey]

This is what you said

"I don't assume anything, but I am not going to say she was all nice, nice when we have seen just the opposite."

not an assumption?

The assumption was made when asking the man if he needed assistance.

what assumption was that? That maybe she thought he was lost? Assuming she was being racist?

So looking at your phone while you are walking indicates that you are lost.

He may have appeared lost to her. Why do people ASSume the worst because she asked him?

Depends on how he was looking at the phone. If he was staring at it like Joe Biden, then yes, it was reasonable to assume he looked lost.

We see this behavior all the time. Black folks are more often than not seen as suspicious. Even when doing the most mundane things.

Do you think it's perhaps because they lead the country per capita in every category of crime in this country?

Dont most people look where they are walking instead looking down? Grasping at straws to make this a racist issue is getting ridiculous.

Why did she AssUMe he was lost?

Was he looking at it turned upside down, that's asinine.

Actually you see folks everyday walking and looking at their phones, where have you been?

It doesn't have to be upside down if you're not sure where you're going.

 

[Superbadbrutha]

How do you know he wasn't sure where he was going?

 

[MizMolly]

Why did she AssUMe he was lost?

he may have looked that way to her.

 

[Ray From Cleveland]

How do you know he wasn't sure where he was going?

How do you know he was? Nobody knows anything except what's in the OP. But I seriously doubt this woman (if she exists) would ask a guy if he needed help unless he looked like he did.

Not in any way. That’s called bigotry, dope.

I see folks looking at their cellphones everyday, I don't AssUMe they are lost.

Most folks ask for help when they are lost.

No, not always. A month or so a cable truck pulled into my parking lot. I assumed he was here for one of my tenants since it wasn't the company I used. He sat there on his cell phone and after a few minutes, I walked up and ask him who he was looking for. He gave an an address that didn't exist on my street. I asked for the name, and it wasn't anybody that lived here. I told him his company must have made a mistake somewhere. He thanked me for my help and took off.
