I don't think I've ever seen a white tattoo covered skin head, . How many "well dressed" black minority teens have you seen? White kids can be just as bad news, but my basic instinct is not to fear them. Where I grew up, even the "well dressed" should be feared, they use it as a cover (South America, not the US). All in all, Obama just told it like it is, IMO,
