If it walks like a duck, dresses like a duck and lives in a ducks neighborhood ... what are people to think?
Get the TSA on this one. They’ll come through.
It’s okay.
White people are getting used to being called racists.
Being male is to be profiled, and none of us or females, complain.
They perpetuate their own stereotypes by their own actions. Whaddaya expect?
Let’s see maybe you are correct and the majority misjudge you, when you are 12% of the population and commit 75% of the crimes is no reason to jump to conclusions I guess.
BS. My wife is Mexican and I’ve never seen her treated any differently than anyone else. Victimhood is the holy grail of liberalism.
Still trying to pimp the media’s version of “Zimmerman saw Trayvon walking through his gated community, followed him and shot him.” story line.
If these LA yutes intend to be so ill informed, nothing can help them.
Blacks face the worst kind of racism, it is call empirical racism. Good example of it was in Philadelphia. A local black activist reporter decided to cover a story about Philadelphia cab drivers refusing to pick up young black men. He arrived at a local gathering place for cab drivers before they drive out and spotted a white cab driver. Immediately he interviewed him and got him to admit he does not pick up black men in certain areas. The black reporter immediately berated the white driver for profiling and racism before another cab driver told him to shut up. Turning around he was surprised the cab driver who told him to be quiet was a black driver and behind him was a group of black cab drivers. The black cab driver was from Jamaica and he also was a leader for the drivers. He immediately educated the reporter on the stats his drivers faced and how many of them have been shot, robbed or stiffed by mainly young black men who wave for a cab. He explained that it was not racism but street experience that all his cab drivers (many of them black) refuse to pick up young black men dressed in a certain way from certain areas of town. Piping in was black limo drivers who explain to the reporter that they face the same problem when called to provide services in black areas and how many of them have been ambushed or worst killed. Racism based on experience is worst then racism based on ignorance because ignorance can be erased by education, but how do you tell someone to ignore real life and death experience and risk everything by being PC?
wow, Thanks for sharing that story. It just makes me sad.
People that racial profile live longer.
Thank you for your insight. My sonIL is of Mexican decent. He seriously sees discrimination everywhere. We will come home from somewhere and he will say “did you notice that?” I really think it is his attitude. And we are thinking “WTH are you talking about?” His mother did her job well.
Your statement “Victimhood is the holy grail of liberalism.” is brilliant.
If white people were between 6.5 and 7.2x more likely to commit murder than blacks, I think white people would be obligated to examine and mitigate their predisposition to violence.
Kendrec McDade case: Man considered victim, turned suspect in shooting
A 911 caller (Carrillo) told police that he'd been robbed at gunpoint: "a videotape shot near a taco truck where the alleged theft occurred shows a 17-year-old reaching into Carrillo’s car and allegedly grabbing both a backpack and a laptop computer. McDade acted as a 'lookout' during the alleged burglary, [the police] said."
It's no excuse for the police to shoot the kid but they were told he had a gun and his reaction made the policemen think that we was going for his gun as they closed in on him.
Now Carrillo is being charged.
Thanks Vet, for continuing to diligently post the Trayvon-Zimmerman news stories. :-)

Hilarious!
I rachel profile all the time. Everytime I see a butch women I think of racheal Madcow.
Hey is anyone aware that Madcow wrote a book?
Probably not you homophobes.
But I digress.
You “good” black and hispanic kids can blame the caution with which whitey regards you on the behavior of others who look like you but don’t care to act civilized.
funny how I don’t hear blacks and hispanics complaining they are being “racially profiled” when college admissions add points to their SATS and GPAS because of their race.
And I don’t see blacks and hispanics complaining they are being racially profiled when they are given preferential treatment with government contracts and government hiring.
Looks like some want to have their cake and eat it too.
