uhh, care to explain? as written, it's kinda hard to read this post charitably.


It was an error in my reading comprehension and understanding of English. Post has been deleted since it wasn't conveying what I wanted.


I didn't downvote you and I hope that my comment comes across as more similar to a vuln disclosure than a threat.

Your employer is listed in your HN profile. Assuming that you actually work for that company, you should be careful making such comments, even if your intent is completely benign.

When I was a reporter (I'm not anymore) I trawled HN comments for stories. It is not inconceivable that some Gizmodo-esque rag might write "[Redacted] Employee Making Racist Comments on Tech Forum" or whatever.


Ah, I wasn't trying to be racist in my post. But I see now how that could be read in a bad way.


I figured, since I'm familiar with some of the stats too. Just be careful out here on the internet :)


I didn't realize police prosecute unfairly and was just looking at the stats...a friend shared an article on the targeting/prosecution breakdown and it wasn't favorable for young Blacks in the U.S.
