in this regrettable event...although it seems as though they could have held off on the handcuffs while verifying the realtor's story.
What lingers in the air, however, is the neighbor's phone call to the police...it would be nearly unthinkable for the reported event to have occurred had the subjects been white. Most of us have bought and sold homes and witnessed realtors with clients coming and going all the time...no one calls the police. What happened here is not an advert for racial equality...I'm saddened for the effect it has to have had on the prospective buyer's son...even if the neighbor just overreacted, he/she should offer their own apology for what transpired...if only to help ease the pain.
