(12,710 posts)because the odds are that you'll be wrong. Whether we like it or not, thats a fact. There are no reports of any slurs yelled or anything thrown; just gunshots. In recent history ALL the shootings & armed robbery suspects involving Clark students have been black people. And none of them were students.
