        Correct, you know why strange s are coming out of your neighborhoods home. Regardles of color, what if they were burglarizing the home.

        I agree. I believe people have the right to be cautious about strange people in their neighbourhood. But a simple interraction could have averted that escalation to the police. Remember that being different doesn't neccessarily make that person criminal at first sight.

        Makes sense. I always smile and talk to people in my neighborhood,especially if I am not familiar with them.

        No, you were harassed because you matched the physical profile of reported burglars. Blame the scared white woman who called it in, not the cops who were just doing their job.

        Don’t you want the police to come answer your calls and concerns?

        They don’t know until the people involved are talked to. It is a difficult situation for all.

        Let's be fair to the neighbors here for a moment. You see your neighbors every day. 1 day you see people who are not your neighbors go into your neighbors house. Color aside I think anyone would have called 911 if they see unknown people walking into a neighbors house.

        And yet you are so unaware of your neighbor you don't know their house is being hosted as an Airbnb house?

        If there were people not my neighbor with suitcases going in and then coming out later( don't know how long they stayed there) , I could reasonably assume they were invited.

        And I'd agree we don't know many of the factors here like how long of time, relationship between neighbors and so on. But to assume its racist because it happened to be a black family and the caller was idk. It seems a bit of a jump to call it racism.

        Once again minus the color. What was this. A misunderstanding by a concerned citizen. So what now we punish people for being concerned. I don't see why this is a big deal. Just cause they were black its suddenly racism. Has to be and there is no other explanation right?

        Here goes the NYT again, trying to push the "white people are racist" agenda. I'm white and my Hispanic neighbors called the police on me when I broke into my house when I didn't have my key. They only saw a guy on the roof (me) and I'm glad they were concerned enough to call.
