I understand your situation and what you went through. I agree it was not pleasant as you were scared to death. You were running for your life and getting mocked by bunch of kids while jogging. I think its  no fun.

That's what I understand from reading your thread. You were basically upset when you wrote this. I know it's been a day or two now. Do you bother reading it again? I am really sure would realize that you have literally blamed the entire race.

What if those kids were white? Would you say "these crackers"? What if those kids were of Asian descent? It could have been anyone my friend. What you fail to realize is it's not the race that determines if people are good or bad it's your perception and the way you look at things.

If you ask me some of the  nice person I've ever come across were of African American descent. You should treat people as individuals nor by their color of the skin.

One's wrong doing does not give you the rights to blame the entire race. What if you hear a bunch of kids of your race mocking a 50 year old white man in the neighborhood and he yells at them "go back home you freaking immigrants" Assuming you were there, What would be your reaction? How would you feel? Do you think it's right for that man to make such statements?
