Just got racially profiled while wearing my grey PwC jacket (w/ hood). Broad daylight, busy street, bunch of people around, parked my 2019 Cadillac behind her car and went to pay the meter…. this crazy white lady yelling at me asking what I tried to take from her car.

People cross across the street when I walk by them. I feel your pain bro.
