12679366, I thought it was kind of thin, whereas Obeezy's made more sense

Although I doubt anyone has asked him personally to park their car (at least not in a long time), it was clearer and made more sense.

I am not black but I am tall. I get asked if I work in a store all the time, and at odd times. I will be wearing a fucking hockey jersey and shorts and some lady is like "Do you work here? Will these shoes fit my son who is 13 years old?"

And I have to reach up and get shit for people all the time, in stores, on planes, etc, etc, etc.

Unless there was some context she didn't provide, I thought it was underwhelming and I'm a tepid supporter. Of course her opponents and the people who think of race as some oddball two-way street (e.g. "Why are there no protests when police are killed by criminals?" and other idiotic questions) would think even less of it than that.

I don't get why she wouldn't think this through a little more.
