In this day and age it may be impolite or inappropriate to wonder but yes one of our first questions was what his ethnic background might be as he does have a certain exotic appearance. The two strongest possibilities, being Oklahoma are part American Indian or Vietnamese (we have a very strong Vietnamese population here).

But of course anything is possible. My wife thought he looked a little bit like someone with Down's Syndrome but that may just be a generic Asian appearance that again could be from either Indian or Asian ancestry.


But whatever he may be I imagine he considers himself mostly white and he did patrol the part of town that was historically the African American part of town although today they do live throughout the city the NE quadrant is still primarily African American.
