Today I was running by a bustop on the busy street corner. It's a fairly decent neighborhood, and it was broad daylight . I did not heed the two people waiting in the bustop, a young black male and an obese black female. That is until the black guy saw me and abruptly stood up. When I looked at him he had already put a pair of sunglasses on, and was throwing his hood over his head, covering his nose and mouth with the bottom of it. He bolted for the narrow door of the bus stop and paused to try to shove his way around the obese woman. Then he proceeded to follow me as I began rounding the corner.
