Lightning is not racist, it is an equal opportunity striker

I'd kinda like to know what in the world gave you the idea that black people (or any other category of people, for that matter) were more or less susceptible to lightning strikes that another. Lightning strikes whatever it strikes without playing favorites. Sheesh!!

OK here we go, statically lightning reports of other races being struck by lightning far out weighs the number of blacks being struck by lightning with the white race leading the numbers as the most likely to b struck by lightning now lets ask ourselves y. so c there r statistics on things like this

Of course.
I have scene it after it hit bears and have heard of it strinking cougars.
Keep in mind lightning strikes are a more rural not urban phenomenon.
So the likelyhood of being struck depends how often you are in open thunderstorm prone areas, like fields, trailer parks and golf courses.
Regardless of the color of your skin, don't climb a radio tower in a thunderstorm!
