Let's revisit the remark in question....

Okay, let's reframe your remark, changing only the subject of the sentence and possible incidental scenery.

When folks see of a young minority male running down the street, whether
he's in the US or in the UK, they tend to think "That person is up to no good".

When folks hear of a group of white males with shaved heads, whether they're in the US or the UK, they tend to think "Those persons are up to no good".

How does your remark look in another venue? Sounds pretty bigoted to me.


I work with dozens of men and women who carry concealed knives at work. About half of the people work I work to whom I speak to have concealed carry permits. Do I work in a den of iniquity? I think not.

Hence I call your remark 'Bigoted Rubbish".

Sorry to offend you, but I think that prejudice deserves to met "head on".
