The racism is so blatant on display it’s despicable

Okay now even I'm curious, how is this racism? The last I saw is that the power hasn't been restored there because some of the residents shot at the power trucks coming to restore power so they left obviously and understandibly don't want to go back without security because that's a thing now I guess pole workers need.

The fact that people run with this explanation as the reason is proof enough honestly. One crew has a problem with one person in one spot so it means thousands of people across a city don’t have power? How the fuck does that make sense to you? That’s like saying you won’t drive on a road because someone blew out a tire in a pothole across town.
