If the first words you always hear are "hey get the fuck out of the street" or something equivalent it would wear on me. I know there must not be black people here in PC (actively). But when I think about what it would be like to be black the thought of the first impression I would make everyday to most people in America would be "here comes a black guy" or "this guy is black" or "another black person".
I am over 50 so I am invisible....I am the harmless 50 year old white guy looking for old stereos and books. Sad to say an African American man may never have that feeling when he goes shopping no matter how old he is. I do not think anyone sees me negatively because of my skin color. Ever.
I know Wilson is innocent until proven guilty but my bullshit detector won't be turned off until they find out what really happened. And I think they will.
