As he pulled his luggage through downtown New Haven, Conn., a woman handed him a flier describing his new city as crime-ridden and dangerous. It listed alarming local crime statistics and instructed students to “remain on campus,” “avoid public transportation” and “stay off the streets after 8 p.m.” Illustrated with a picture of the Grim Reaper, the flier wished students an ominous “Good luck.”
But perhaps most jarring was the source of the flier, listed plainly in its text: the union that represents Yale’s own campus police.

No, that type of comment is opportunism at best. It’s OK to recognize that.
Ok I’ll add sympathy for ivy league students who think seeing a black person made them a victim of violent crime to my list of things to care about. It’s gonna be right around sympathy for soldiers who feel bad about the war crimes they committed.
