re: Visiting white parts of town makes some Black kids feel less safe, according to study

When feelings dominate a person's psyche; they are usually irrational. This is the problem when dealing with "feelings." It frequently leads to unrealistic expectations, because the problems are based in irrationality. Therefore, solutions to these problems are virtually impossible to achieve some measure of success.

What is better? To feel safe, or to be safe? This is the issue with modern society. We are largely incredibly safe compared to our ancestors. However, people have this irrational fear about just about every aspect of life, because we are always chasing an impossible goal of utter and complete safety.

Therefore, I believe it is good and necessary to expose people to risk and a modicum of danger in life to properly equip them to handle mundane risks of merely being alive.
