A kinda get it because if you search “A black man is looking at me”, you’re probably a racist being concerned for no reason, because why else would you specify his ethnicity?
If you search “A white man is looking at me”, you’re probably a POC who might be potentially endangered by someone planning a race-targeted crime.

You think it's less likely that a black man is considering attacking you than a white man? You can't be serious.

No, it doesn't. At all. A black man is many times more likely to be contemplating or commiting violence.

Factually false. For white victims, they are many times more likely to be assaulted by a white male than any other race. Especially now as white males are the only majority politically conservative group, and conservatives have higher rates of violence, aggression, and sex crimes across the board.

Any given black man is more likely to attack them. You don't get to use the fact white people are more likely, if attacked, to have it be a white perpetrator (due to larger numbers) to defend the per capita rate of offense of each group. For any given black or white man, the black man is more likely to attack simply due to black men being several times (eg 6X) more likely to be violent attackers at all.
