CPL Shawn Lawson - Let's be real, he only threatened her because she was brown and wearing a headscarf.

*le sigh* She could not pass as white. The whitest she could probably pass as is probably latina mix. And it does not matter how we perceive her, that man judged her by how she looked, and he acted on his hate based on her looks. He didn't care about her nationality, because as far as he knew, she could have been born in America. It didn't matter to him because all he saw was skin and hijab.

CPL Shawn Lawson - Like I've said, it does not matter what she actually is, it is what HE perceived her to be. As far as what's wrong with me, there's a displaced bicipital tendon, joint laxity in general, about 20 screws and 3 metal plates in my foot, anxiety, depression, PTSD, and not-good-at-peopling. Admittedly, today is an off day for me.

But both sides need to respect each other's rights. We are a much better country then these stories tell.
