Bag the crypto. Say what is on your mind.

Oh, yes. The house is mine, again. The Man (Gary Odell, the other cop in Cameron, WI) came and coaxed the guy out (by name), after my attempts failed. The guy would not believe it was really my house, 'cuz I'm black, and there ain't no black people in WI.

Damages to the crib were minimal. A broken window, some disorder in the main bathroom... just another memoir item.

Aha! You were caught Homeowning While Black. Almost as dangerous as Driving While Black.

Damn, Gus. You do seem to collect the happenings, don't you? I hope the next few months are calm enough for you that you can start telling us some of your older stories.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Ann, that's a ferret.

Gus -- just, egad. At least you ended up ok.

Now tagless for your comfort.

What does one say in this situation? Has Miss Manners posted to this dilemma?

See, I think Gus handled this with much more aplomb than I would have. My first words would have been, "Dude, get the fuck out of my house."
