Nope, what kinda racist projection is that? They should be forced to walk through an area that they wouldn't set foot in voluntarily.

If they are respectful they won't have problems. If they aren't they might learn a valuable lesson.

You're digging deeper...

The mature response to saying something accidentally racist is to apologize, take it on the chin, possibly learn something, and move on.

You’re saying that all “hoods” are violent, which is untrue. You watch too much TV. You should delete your shit comments instead of trying to dig yourself out.

Did I say that? Or are you filling in blanks?

Forceful exposure to situations other than the ones that would create a trump scyophant is one of the most effective ways to show themnthat they have more in common with the people in the hood than they do with a wannabe demagogue.
