Why is it less safe if you’re black or Mexican?

Is there a racism issue or is it that ethnicity based gangs exist?



Nah it's less safe if they think you have something valuable on you and don't look like someone who'll put up a fight. Gangs you run into nowadays are more into robberies & break-ins that fighting with each other.
