re: Black People Are Sharing The Unwritten Rules They Follow

."I am a Black woman, relatively new to my mostly white neighborhood. When I take a walk for exercise, I always walk in the middle of the street, not too close to houses on either side. I wear reflective gear and avoid staring too closely at any of the houses. I often think of Ahmaud Arbery while I’m walking."

Makes perfect sense. Buy a home in an area where you believe you will be gunned down any second.

Absolutely 100% believable.

I mean. Who hasn’t thought about making a very large purchase of a home where they have to constantly believe they will be murdered in the street. After allll the options.. that was the house. The other homes needed a little paint, maybe some landscaping, but that house was sooooooo perfect, they accepted living in a neighborhood where they are scared to walk outside.

Yep. 1000% believable.

Interesting they avoid sundown towns. Well I avoid towns like the lower 9th ward, the projects and inner city ghettos to avoid getting killed. Samesies!

That rule never seems to be followed.

Avoid them at all costs, but if you have to pass through at night, MAKE SURE YOU HAVE A FULL TANK OF GAS so that you don't have to stop." —bigscooby04 "When road tripping, every Black person knows not to stop in a rural area for gas or a pee break if you can help it, especially at night. I know someone whose child actually peed their pants because the area they were driving through was a sundown town, and they weren't going to risk it."

while this is complete and total bullshite I do know of a black man who was scared shitless when we were driving through and area in central arkansas that is almost totally white and is known as a place that wasn’t always friendly to blacks and in 2017 he kept asking me how much gas I had because He was terrified of something happening to the car and us being broke down in this area. I laughed and told him he was crazy for thinking people around there would do anything to him in this day and age but he still had this ignorant notion. I later dated a girl from the area and she was one of the most liberal people I’ve ever met, in fact the fact that the area is so white she never really had any dealing with black people made her not understand how thuggish some can really be. She assumed all black people act just like white people and the reason ghettos and gangs exist is because they were just mistreated by the government. I shite you not

…and is absolutely clueless how infuriating that is to people driving down the street.

You can almost smell the funk from under the fat rolls of the green haired white liberal creature that wrote those quotes.

True. If I had to walk through a bad part of New Orleans, I’d pick early morning when all the thugs have finally gone to sleep.

Aren’t there places in Chicago, Detroit, Philly, etc. that white folks can’t safely travel? Let’s not talk about that, instead just hate on the white neighborhoods.
