Does it help if I'm a [hispanic] girl?

I was looking through their gallery and I only saw three or four people who were black or hispanic, and they were all guys. :| I guess it's healer for me! (Besides, making the weapons seems terribly time consuming. Awesome, but time consuming)

I don't know your neighborhood or the neighborhood where you'll be larping, but I would lean to something un-weaponed and and an outfit without a hood. Preferably one without sleeves too. Too many cops are too edgy, and too many middle aged white folks are too quick to call those cops. It sucks that it should restrict your choices, but this is the world we live in. Better that than you ending up being shot because of some triggerhappy fool. I'd personally be wary of that group unless you can get a token white guy or girl in it. One who looks preppy enough too.

I assume that OP was referencing this case where a black male cosplayer (Darien Hunt) was shot for having a fake sword as part of his costume. Didn't get the attention Ferguson, Trayvon, etc. did, but it's probably part of that trend.

I suspect you're okay having a weapon. I don't think the police go after Hispanic girls that much, like they do black guys.

If you are LARPing in a group with with black guys or other hispanics though, the last thing you want is a prank call saying there is a group of armed ethnics running around. You'd get a full SWAT response, make sure there is at least one clean cut white guy (no hipster beards or scruffy stubble) in the group to make sure the police are a little calmer in the response. Remember, it only takes one worried/malicious call and one bad cop.

OP

Yeah, I think I'd be alright.

But are you serious about Darien Hunt? WTF?! I can't believe this. Thanks for the info, I had no idea that happened. This shit is crazy.
