did I say I did? It's a catch 22. It's not guaranteed that the cops are going to protect you, but it's not guaranteed that you're going to always be safe from people just because they look like you. ("Hey, we brothas...don't rob me" "Nigga, fuck u, I'm tryin to feed my kids")

On one level, I refuse to be afraid of my own folks, but that's REAL. Is there a reason you don't want to see that?

ok. I'll give you that.

In what capacity? Is there ever a reason to call the authorities? If not, what are YOU willing to do to make the streets safe?

You just contradicted yourself.
