I think it's inevitable that people will form snap judgments about others based on appearance. It's human nature. Where we rise above our nature is in making sure we don't act in those judgments to bring harm to others. Suspicion of mysterious (black) man at night, OK. Crossing the street to avoid unpredictable confrontation? Maybe unwarranted, but OK. Preemptively calling the cops on him, not OK. Shooting him first "just in case," not OK.
