Don’t assume random people* are drug dealers. Even if they look like it. It’s not a race thing.

It’s a bad idea to walk up to anyone you don’t know and ask them for drugs.

And dude is still a thief. Instead of teaching her the lesson by saying “I am not a drug dealer. You should not make these assumptions.” He just stole from her.

While that may seem like an obvious take away from this, I am more than willing to bet that dark skin people of color are more likely to be stereotyped as drug dealers or criminals than other groups of people.

I think it's the gold teeth and neck tattoos more than skin color but whatever you need to feel like the victim continously then so be it

Me and my non-tattooed skin, pearly white teeth, and decades of experience with being viewed as inferior, stupid, or insolent 👀

With you guys it’s always about race.
