If all I hear from young black dudes is how many times they've been to jail and which burner they decided to carry today, I would sure as hell keep an eye on them and anyone who looked like them. Now, if the situation was reversed and the black dude was the one in the preppy or dressier clothing, and the white dudes were all thugged out looking, then hell yeah, I'd be following the white dudes around. It's all about what image you personify.
