I worry that those things played a part in my reaction. I try to change details in the story to see if I would react the same. Maybe if it was: a white guy, no hood, daytime, a girl, a black guy, and then I saw the "gun" would I have reacted differently?

I don't know. What do you say? Was that racist?

I'd say that you got yourself a bump in the night. Unless a hooded stranger fills you with any less fear in the dark with an apparent gun and an interest in you... then it's not remotely racist. Smile

Besides, even if it *is* even a touch racist: that's not on you... that's on the fear culture mongered by your media and government when regarding 'foreign nationals'.
Please give me a home where cloud buffalo roam
Where the dear and the strangers can play
Where sometimes is heard a discouraging word
But the skies are not stormy all day
