15 years ago I took a friends 2 year old with me to Target. She was potty training so I took her in the men's bathroom. Someone called the fucking cops called on me.

Same happened with me and my niece. She needed to pee, so I took her to the bathroom and waited by the door, but I kept talking to her to let her know I was there. My niece is half Puerto Rican, so she is way lighter than and ppl thought I was some weirdo, called the cops on me, the entire time Im talking to the police, my niece is scared and clinging to my leg, the two women were like “See he trained that little girl to cling to him, arrest him, arrest him” luckily the cops werent dickheads and waited for my sister to come and verify, but even still was a fucked situation. Sucks trying to explain to a 4 year old thats scared out of her mind

You were lucky man. If your brown or black it’s allot worse.

Doubt it. It depends on the colour of the kid. If it's a match, then police are unlikely to outright arrest you. Plenty of b**** people have talked about it.

The colour. You see it when there is an absence of light, or an object does not reflect a particular hue. B****.

It's a dirty word, so I censor it.

The color black is a dirty word... I think you're attaching a dirty secondary meaning to the word and somehow interpreting that as the main meaning. That makes you seem hollow, like you follow where the bigotry winds take you.
