I have two. One before elections and one after.
#1
*at a gas station (a week before election)
*black mercedes drives up
colored: hey bro waz up? can you help me with something?
me: Do you need directions?
colored: nah man i've been stuck here two hours! peoples roun' here are hella mean! no one's willing to help me.
me: I won't be able to help you either.
*colored stares a long time
colored: why?
me: Because I don't want to.
colored: in my 40 years i ain' never done heard that.
me: Well I'm a very honest person. You're a stranger who's asking me for money and I politely declined.
colored: I AINT ASKING YOU FOR MONEY! I'm asking you for DIRECTIONS!
me: Don't bullshit me you just said you don't need directions and that you were stuck here for two hours and people are hella mean.
colored: why you raising your voice?
me: Because you lied.
colored: why you raising your voice?
me: Because you're a liar.
colored: i drive a mercedes! i don't need no money!
*colored goes off to ask asian for money

#2
*at a supermarket (a week after election)
*standing in line behind a colored lady who's moving left and right to find a faster line.
*colored lady exits line and moves to another line, which turns out to be slower.
*I haven't moved forward to take her spot because I know full well she'll accuse me of cutting in spite of having left the line... but that doesn't spare me anyways.
colored: there's so many lines here and your trying to CUT in front of me!
me: How can I cut in front of your if I'm standing behind you?
colored: save your voice for someone else!
me: I most certainly will.
*colored keeps wondering around for a faster line.
*In the meantime I'm already having my groceries scanned.
colored: i'm going away from you!

Has anyone else had interactions with colored folk before/after election? Any difference?
I think they're getting skiddish.
