Reply to comment by njdevils3027 in BEWARE two black individuals posing as PSE&G employees knocking on doors ( Clifton NJ) by [deleted]

Is that the most easily identifiable? There's tons of black people. It does relatively little to narrow the pool. Their clothing would be more identifiable. And it's not just the number of people impersonating PSE&G. You also gotta factor in actual PSEG employees going around.

Agree...the reference to "black" wasn't needed. We need to be more cognizant of the words we choose and try to avoid stereotyping/profiling. I'm sure it wasn't intentional.

I don't think it was intentional, but that doesn't make it any more acceptable.
