[QUOTE="oksportsman, post: 4039194, member: 27661"] So today a northeast Oklahoma City non-profit I am board president of had a community wash day where we paid for up to $10.00 of laundry, provided a free hot lunch, a mobile dog grooming service, books for kids, clothes and more. We had wrapped solo cups filled with candy & items for YOUNG children. A boy that appeared to be a mid aged teenager reached out to grab one and I told him they were for younger children and went on helping those we were there to serve. Fast forward an hour - his "brother" gets in my face and tells me not to touch his younger brother (I never did) and that this was HIS neighborhood and I as a white man was not welcome and about to get in serious trouble with him and his gang members - The Bloods. I wished the older brother well. He spent the few next hours across the parking lot staring me down. I will never be intimidated by a thug of any race or ethnicity. Thankfully the 138 loads of laundry we paid for, the hot meals we provided and the other services offset his sorry a$$ behavior and threats. Rant over. [/QUOTE]
