This triggered multiple audience members to call in and request that I not be allowed back.
The host said I was racist to treat someone dressed like a thug as a potential thug.

ICYMI - What Is the Significance of Left and Right in the Bible?
Something as simple as left and right in the Bible may not seem to be significant.
However, you might be surprised to learn that studying how God uses individual words can be beneficial.
In this case, the words “left” and “right” have many different usages.
Sometimes, the words can mean position, direction, etc.
The word “left” can mean
that which remains (Genesis 7:23; Exodus 34:25; Psalm 106:11),
a direction (Genesis 13:9)
to leave something with someone (Genesis 39:6)
the side of a person (Leviticus 14:16; Song of Solomon 2:6)
a representation (Isaiah 1:8)
to leave (Matthew 2:12), etc.
Likewise, “right” can mean that
which is correct (Genesis 24:48; Mark 5:15)
the side of a person (Genesis 48:13; Psalm 16:8)
authority (Psalm 50:16; John 1:12)
that which is proper (Matthew 20:4), etc.
But besides these, there are symbolic uses of left and right.
For example, on the day of judgment, those who are condemned to run the left of Christ and those who are saved are on his right (Matthew 25:33).
Please consider the following categories designated by left and right…
