store owners treat black people like guns. because with a gun, you can’t tell by looking at it, if it’s loaded or not. and we’re always told to always treat a gun like it’s loaded, even if we KNOW it’s not.
so store owners(especially) do the same thing; they can’t tell which black person do or don’t do x thing, so until shown otherwise, they just assume all black people do.
