That America has a never ending supply of racist white ladies, who believe that they’re entitled to use the police to oppress any Black person within their presence.

It’s not just the racist aspect of it, it’s the sheer audacity of their willingness to police Black bodies personally, under the rubric being “afraid” of those same Black bodies, merely because they’re inability to cope with their own episode of race based stress.

These white people see a Black body in an area where they’ve designated it in their own minds as a “whites only space,” they then become uncomfortable with that fact and then go on to conflate their own discomfort around Black people with some “threat” to their own safety.

It’s ridiculous to most people of course, but to whites who have been conditioned to have anti-Black bias for their entire lives, it makes perfect sense.

Thank goodness for cell phones videos and YouTube, because it’s not out of the realm of possibility for these racially stressed and entitled white women cry “rape” or whatever, whenever Black people are doing nothing more than going about their own business.

In the past, that’s how a Black man could get lynched.
