I don't know that any specific
example can be held up and
examined without finding some
imperfection of the theory.

Is there ever a perfect fit?
IOW, there are exceptions to the rule.

IMO, the issue transcends micro
examples and applies to a larger,
social macrocosm.

Travon was a victim of an individual racist.

Ferguson is a more apropos example
The Ferguson community was/is victimized
because of race, and through the instruments
of institutional violence and economic abuse.

Ferguson residents are both abused socially
and economically.

Not quibbling, and appreciate your reply.
peace
