@ai6yr @evangreer @drewharwell Sadly true, and my situation was more just mild inconvenience and WTF than anything BIPOC have to deal with, with the actual risk of death they face as opposed to just a risk of argument
Although that's one reason stuff like this (and I have quite a few stories) gets to me even now that I don't *intentionally* try to stand out with my looks so much - that it happens to people who are just trying to live and go about their lives
