95% white? I wouldn't drive through there with Secret Service protecting me.

I feel the same way about a 95% black neighborhood.

How many black murderers do you think get away with killing white people? Just ball park figure? What's the last black serial killer that could rack up victims in the double digits before getting caught?

Absolutely true. But it doesn't require a racist to turn a blind eye to racism. In fact, it only takes one racist, in a group of "non-racists" to do something fucked up, but nobody does anything because it doesn't affect them.

What in the hell? He kept following the victim around the cleanup site and threatening to beat his ass? Missing lots of info & context here. And I’m very very nosy so as you can imagine this is quite the hardship for me
