And my response was, there is no way you can know the amount of fear a people can have based on social media (tweets, facebook posts). How do you know what Blacks, as a people, fear and to what degree they fear?

You admitted that all people fear things when something else is most likely to take them out; unless 100% correct means something else. Kind of like how "lose your shit" cannot mean outrage....but something else right? I still want to know what "lose your shit" means if not outrage...but I digress.

So why is it when it comes to Blacks, it's more upsetting and irrational?

You mentioned Arnesha Bowers yet I linked an online BET article expressing how upset communities were about the occurrence.

So, because you have no way of measuring how Blacks feel as a people, what they fear, and to what degree they fear I find your logic to be off.

Once again, your perception is skewed.
