Yes. At the present moment, I live in the country and my son and husband just went to town. Spotted a Spanish/Latino person walking down the road coming my way with a backpack on him. They called to tell me to lock doors and keep safe and watch to see if he goes by or perhaps has something in mind. Hopefully, he will go on down the road.
I only took it to mean that you were simply reiterating what the person above you posted, which is:
– LongTimeListener 6 hours ago +6 / -0
If they arent doing exactly what was outlawed why would they care? It would be a meaningless law.
And comparing the lefties and their opposition to a wall, etc.. as being the same as “let them all in, they aren’t dangerous. And then shit a brick when they’re dropped off in their neighborhoods ala Martha’s Vineyard.
I didn’t think you meant it in a racist way but even if you did I don’t give a shit about that either.
No, I was just describing the man that my son and husband said was heading my way. That's what they said he looked like. But I will remind myself from now on not to describe anyone by their nationality. Thanks for your reply.
What in God's name made this racist thought pop out of your mind and into the comment section? I'm pretty hard to offend, but I am also of Spanish decent and, believe it or not, I have a backpack. I am as American as you are. My people came from Spain long ago and helped to settle Texas and New Mexico. If trouble ever shows up while you and I are in the same place, I'm going to try to defend you too, my friend. Don't fuel their beliefs on white people.
I'm so sorry. I was just stating that this is what they called me to tell me. Not many people hitch/hike nowadays and so they thought he might be a threat. Anyways, I haven't seen anyone so he must have caught a ride. Sorry again my friend.
Maybe you don’t live in the same kind of area as Mary does. I do. I live in rural America. If a guy was walking down the road, out here, miles from any public area, it wound raise concerns. Wouldn’t matter what color he is. Does he need help? Is he training? Is he crazy? Nothing wrong with calling a loved one, home alone, to be aware of a situation. It’s common sense. It’s definitely not a racist thought. And like she said, this is the world we live in now. Its not fueling “racism” imo. It’s just being aware. Don’t be so offended because you have a backpack and like rural country roads to walk around in. Especially in Texas and NM.
And again, I am sorry if I offended you. This is the world Biden wants us to live in. Before, I wouldn't have felt threatened or scared as much. And it doesn't matter what race of people they are, today anyone; even the Whites, are just as dangerous. So I didn't mean to sound as if I am racist. Just stating what they said on the phone.
Stop apologizing! That's how we got in this mess. Everyone going out of their way to not offend. There's much we don't know about this situation. Perhaps you're family saw strange behavior? Maybe you live in a community that has little diversity and his presence was odd. We have millions of illegal aliens in the country at present. Assuming it was racist is programmed behavior. I just assumed there was more to the story you didn't take the time to type out. It's not racist to observe out of the ordinary happenings. Going out of your way not to notice because they're a different color is idiocy. Now before I get labeled racist for saying this, I'm in a mixed relationship. So don't bother.
It read descriptive, not racist, to me. If I saw a suspicious looking person walking towards my mom’s house & knew she was alone, I would give her a descriptive heads up as well. Don’t feel bad, Mary!
Offended was a strong word. I am all but impossible to offend. Mostly, the comment just seemed extremely out if place. We are all in the same fight. Just know that this Spaniard likely has a gun in his backpack that is there for anyone I can help. I wouldn't carry if I thought everyone had good intentions. I was just hassling you.
I'm still pretty brown as I work in the sun. Honestly, I relate more to being white than anything else. Kind of the way I grew up. Don't get me wrong, I profile as much as tge next guy. I also prefer to give people the benefit of the doubt, for better or for worse.

I don't think that you have ANYTHING to apologize for.

Spain? You're European.

Backpack eh? So were you planning something or not? 😂
