If he was WHITE, LATINO or a
FRENCH MIME, I would have put that detail in there, too. But that wasn't part of the unfortunate events of that evening...
If I knew more about them, I would have added it. But that's all I have; Age, Race and Gender. And that's what's in the post, which is the same information the police got-- just the facts.
If you experienced discomfort while reading a detailed account of a Battery against a Segway and it's owner, just because the perp's race was mentioned, then you might might need to spend some time contemplating why you felt this way.
And thanks for the complements on my writing. I try to be at least a little entertaining to help balance the controversy of my participation.
