„The other night we were walking through the most public place in beautiful Old Town Tallinn, Estonia, and something reminded me how ugly this place can be. Some guy, presumably for his bachelor party, was dressed up as black man, face painted and wearing an afro wig. One of his friends was having him giving him a shoe shine.
I don’t have pictures, for fear of smacking the ignorant son-of-a-bitch with my cell phone. Instead, I gave him the word. Many of the words were not nice, and the main one was racist. At risk, I freaked them out.“

“Thank you so much for this thoughtful comment. I think you captured the other side of the story, and in combination the two posts help contribute to understanding.
I also strongly agree with your views on our government.
