Argh, I'm sure I won't state this as I intend.
The story Ken shared is a clear case of racism, but where do we draw the line with the idea that if "something looks wrong, report it"?
Just to use the same case, would have been unreasonable for the woman to call the police before any interaction with the babysitter and report that something looked suspicious? Would we consider that racist?
When we get to a point where we are afraid to report something and then 15 minutes get an AMBER Alert about the two girls, how are we going to feel when those kids are never found?
