Actually, I know plenty of white people who would do exactly that. Like the couple I ran into in Missouri who got into trouble for running an erotic haunted house. There are also plenty of lazy, stupid white people who blame not being able to get a job on AA. So I'm not sure that there's any sort of real difference between black people and white people here.
