People do call. And the police should come investigate. No argument there. I'm just making the point that In most States a machete is illegal to carry and a firearm isn't. Even more so in your hand brandishing it.Try carrying a gun down the street and see what happens.
Someone will call the police just like with the machete.
thats the point.

I hate that it always seems to be people throwing hypothetical situations out that didn't happen.All of the points you make are solid, IMO. That's why I try not to get on the wrong side of a debate with you bro.
I just get tired of all these threads about how bad black people are and how righteous these black hating white guys are . . .

Why can't we take it at face value? Suspicious character not from your neighborhood prowling around with a large edge weapon. What SHOULD a person do when they see that?
Calling the authorities and warning the neighborhood seems like the proper thing to do.
Taking it anywhere but there just screams to me that someone is trying to push a racial agenda where there isn't a racial issue.
Woodwise, going along the lines of racist profiling how would you describe this criminal if calling it in?

Don't make statements you can't back up. crime statistics don't back up there being just as much white crime as black.Gman. My point has never been that there are not black criminals, or that we should not say someone is black when describing them to the police.
My points are that 1. if a black guy is not doing something obviously wrong, there is no doubt it is racial profiling to call the police on him; 2. all these threads you guys are posting showing black people in a bad light and statements made about how bad black people are, while ignoring a. that there are a lot of good black people out there (in fact a majority of blacks are law abiding citizens and hard working, too).; and b. that there are nearly the same percentages of white criminals and white trash as there are black criminals and black trash -- makes it self evident you and your other heroes have an anti black agenda that you are promoting.
So deny it all you will, but every time you whine like a bitch about blacks, you are reinforcing and supporting my claim that you are racist.

It seems like you're missing words. They say black thug. All you see is black. If you move to a nice neighborhood, you see someone not from the neighborhood who looks like a hood rat strolling around looking very suspicious. What do you think about this individual?
Let's say you think he's out of place but say nothing to him out anyone. The following morning you find out your neighbors house was robbed and his daughter was brutally raped. You flip on the pm news and you see the mugshot of the man that did it, it was the shady looking character you saw yesterday and did nothing about.
It doesn't hurt anyone to warn people about something like that or have a cop roll by and ask them some questions.
