To set the record straight, I'm glad it turned out that there was actually a burglary involving a black Lexus, in Veneta.  It would have saved everyone a lot of trouble if the Sheriff's department had been forthcoming about that when Hamilton first inquired.

I'm not anti-cop.  I'm anti-racist cop, of which there are still some in uniform, unfortunately.

Regarding white cluelessness, how many white folk reading this have (as adults) been followed around a store by suspicious employees?  How many have waited for service while people of a different race who arrived afterward get served first?  How many have received substandard service compared with others? How many have been pulled over by a police officer, checked out, and questioned about what we are up to, for having committed no infraction of any kind? We simply don't experience racism on the receiving end, so it tends to be invisible to us.

As for batting averages, 500 would be the envy of any major leaguer I know of.
