You said it in a thread where the very thing you call justified is what others view as a range of certain crappy behaviors commonly known as racist.

BLM: White Woman Lists All The Things She Had To Learn After Marrying A Black Man

And you made assumptions about race.
And you and everyone else is free to their opinion. I suggest people follow their instincts. Would have saved my co-worker from being mugged. Are you suggesting people not follow their instincts?

I haven't assumed definite races, but you yourself did let us know race was a thing. And, again, you say that here.
That’s right. And you assumed a big black male.

I added that because this thread is about a white woman who learned some of abkut society being married to an especially big black guy (six and a half foot, if I recall correctly). And you say what you did here. When one of the points being made by the lady is people turning away from her husband in fear--changing their course--as you described and justified in your post.

Its more timing and location giving the context of this thread. "Tone deaf" would be one way of describing it. You're basically saying people should do what the lady in the OP is finding many things, none of them good or positive.

Do you actually think that only Black men mug people?

The thread started off on a whinge about how much learning there was for a woman in an inter-racial marriage. What it's got to do with BLM I don't know. My response: what do you expect? Look at the divorce stats. Doesn't that tell you anything? I am sorry if stats make you angry, but frankly, they exist and they tell a story. If you don't look before you leap, don't whinge you have a rough landing.

I am not sure what stats you're looking but the ones I am looking indicate approx 100% increase in divorce for inter-racial marriages of the White Woman Black Man varity over a White Woman - White Man marriage, which tells me such woman have got nothing to whinge about because they should have seen it coming.

The woman in the original post talked about the hostility the interracial couple faced by neighbours and other strangers.
What exactly should this woman have "seen coming" there? Hostility from being an interracial couple?
Why would you mock her for that?

If you don't know what she should have seen coming (which she explained herself in her first para.) then you (and her) are alike in having difficulty in learning from stats. In short everything she's whinging about was predictable. Does every married couple go into print whinging about x, y or z? My experience when buying a house at a young age was frankly no different. Elderly neighbours just didn't like me. Just one of those things. Why is this woman whinging when according to her, she owns her house outright? What does she want?
Jude 1:16 These people are grumblers and faultfinders....
In short nothing to do with BLM.

Some people should think about that in advance.
You didn’t answer the question.
I never said the race of the people in my story. And I focused on instinct and gut feelings. I never asserted “Black men.” Shadow Wolf made an assumption. Thanks for playing.
I was sharing my coworkers experience. She didn’t cross the street because she didn’t want to be racist. Her instincts were telling her something was wrong. She didn’t listen. Got mugged. So from your point of view, it sounds like she would be racist if she had trusted her instincts and avoided the person. I guess you like she got mugged instead. Is that it?
