That was my entire point. I apologize for lashing out at you personally and for calling you a racist. I am sorry. I was just very upset by your comment regarding a 'white' escaping your old 'hood' without being assaulted and stolen from by 'blacks'. Your comment, while possibly correct, still reflects and propagates the racial stereotypes that were directly responsible for this, and all racially motivated crimes. Perhaps I should have simply asked you to choose your words more carefully when making threats on others (i.e. your 'hood' threat). It was a threatening comment.
