"I feel threatened" in a grocery store, and there was the one of the creep on the bike taking the BLM posters from a teenage girl, and there was the one with his woman partner telling a POC home owner in SF that he couldn't paint "Black Lives Matter" on his own house.

Surely you seen some of these. Or how about the really extreme ones like the racists who videotaped their killing of the black jogger, Ahmaud Arbery?

And of course there are all the older ones with women like the BBQ Beckys, Pool Patrol Patties, and Starbucks creep who called the cops on the innocent black men waiting for someone.
