The Open Carry Test
There are several videos on Youtube and elsewhere showing what happens when a white person and a black person legally and openly carry firearms in public in some predominantly white communities. White guy, everyone leaves alone. Black guy is constantly being harassed by police.
I don't know if xenophobia is more nature or nurture, but it is real. It isn't something that we should just brush aside and ignore. We should face it for what it is, and do our best to limit its impact on our society.
