While I agree. It can be a little rougher in the south. I don't judge, but if I'm going to get some weed or M, and my buddy is with me, whom is a 40 yr old black guy. He'll be the first to say "lock the doors and keep the windows up."

Nothing on the folks in the ghetto, but some of em are desperate and will see a white person as an easy target.

But I'm also the type of guy to treat a rough black neighborhood the same as a rough white neighborhood.

Hell, I'm more scared of the white ghettos with all the meth. White methheads will stab ya in the face. Black ghettos are just folks trying to get by.

This was in Louisiana. It was bad enough that my friend who lived there was surrounded by cops going home multiple times because "the only reason a white person would be there is to buy drugs."

Yea, it definitely a thing I watch for when going into them areas. If I see a cop on one block, I'll go around 2 blocks so they don't see us riding back through.

Which makes me feel bad cause ya it is one of the reasons I am over there, but that can't be helped if the folks I break bread with are black.

And it's not like I see a black person and go "on that's a plug." It just I end up having black plugs cause all my white plugs rip me off and act like they're my buddies. I've never been ripped off by a black plug if I'm tbh.

It's a fucked world. Everybody wants to get the drop on everyone.
