I have to pretend some group of hoodie hooligans glancing around suspiciously on a dark street aren't scary, because they are black.
As if groups of hooded males loitering on street corners isn't intimidating regardless of their skin colour.
25 years ago, I lived in an overwhelmingly white area, and the the trouble-causers were white, and you could call them the reprobate trash that they were.
Now, the trouble-causers are brown. They exhibit the same behiavior, they even pick the same corners to loiter on as the natives did before they were born.
But call them 'a group of thugs' and you're a racist.

The solution is to just be racist.
