Default Scouts have bumpy landing

I was being facetious. How many whites got arrested and beaten for
drinking from a "Blacks Only" water fountain?

Not a significant number. But whites who attempted to ignore segregation did
get arrested, beaten up, and otherwise persecuted. White skin only protected
them as long as they followed the party line.
