I'd beat the old lady in both scenarios, of course.No it isn't. Scenario: you are denied a job because of the color of your skin, you lose income, you end up in massive debt that takes years to crawl out of, if ever. Another scenario: You are wrongfully convicted of charges due to the color of your skin and have to serve years in prison. Now given those scenarios, which would you pick, those or a few scars that will eventually heal and a few days of taking some ibuprofen?
