That idea is in direct contradiction to Darwin and my
own observation.

The species that survives blends in to its surroundings.

When in a neighborhood of white picket fences
it's best to look like a white picket fence.

When in a neighborhood of people wearing black
patches over their eyes, wear a black patch over
your eye and not over your crotch.

A Man of the Cloth can go most places without
suspicion or interference tho. A man with a badge
and gun has much more of a problem.

How would Darwin explain that?

But The Men in Real Blue should learn to go
in any Cloth.
