Ahh solid post. Let's ignore these glaring grotesque facts and waste our time talking about Michael Brown. The reason I started this thread is because I've been on the road all day listening to CNN and they've discussed it a minimum of 6 times.

I love you OMMG. But, there is no reason to get upset over this thread.
This is an uncomfortable bed of "our" own making.
To answer the OP:
If your wife (mother, sister, GF?) sees me walking toward her as darkness is falling and locks her car door...she is being unnecessarily, but REASONABLY, cautious.
If she sees me walking toward her and she locks the door to her diner...she is a racist bitch.
If she tells a neeger joke at her Bunko hen party...she is just telling a joke.
If she, as a loan officer, denies me a loan that I am otherwise qualified for on the assumption that I am risky because of race....she is a racist bitch.
I understand that I may be watched a bit more closely in an expensive store. But, so long as I am not prohibited from shopping...its cool.
I try as hard as possible to demonstrate understanding and proper behavior in hopes that it will simply chip a tiny piece off of the boulder of racial profiling suspicion. Its a MUCH easier "burden" than my forebears toiled beneath.
That a loud group has created doubt is not MY fault....but, it is not exactly YOUR fault either.
My dad has seen progress. I've seen progress. Maybe a generation or two from now will read these threads and wonder what it was like in those "awful times".
