My feelings are far less of a concern than my personal safety. The distance between ‘she was asking for it, dressed like that’ and ‘those n-bombs are all rapists, if a woman claims assault for any reason it’s guaranteed he did it’ ain’t as far apart as you seem to think.

I dunno 'bout you, but I’m sure as fuck not looking to be the next Exonerated Five example. And more importantly, being as I’m inot a trigger-happy stand-your-ground state and in the same Metropolitan area where Amber Guyger feared for her life after going into the wrong fucking apartment, I sure as hell don’t trust things to be made right or go smoothly the second white woman tears are involved.

My proverbial beef isn’t the pointing out of how manny men are predators and that the risksfor women are non-zero; my problem more specifically is that the meme stacks handily on top of the already vexing racial profiling I deal with as a black man who’s had false allegations leveled in the past and lost jobs because of the weaponization of this fear. I have already spent damn near a half century being presumed some kind of feral Mandingo rape beast purely for existing while black. The presumption of interest in all of these women like a scene out of Kentucky Fried Movie gets really old and they get super vindictive when rejected.
