ACLU report alleges widespread racial profiling by FBI

The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) claims the FBI targets specific American communities across the United States based on race, ethnicity, national origin and religion for “assessments” and possible criminal investigation.

Citing records obtained under the Freedom of Information Act, the ACLU alleges that FBI agents identified Chinese and Russian communities in San Francisco as a place to look for organized crime syndicates and Arab-American and Muslim communities in Michigan as a possible terrorist recruitment ground, among others.

The ACLU calls this practice “racial profiling on an industrial scale” and has asked Attorney General Eric Holder to ban it. But according to law enforcement officials, this isn’t racial profiling at all. It’s just effective crime mapping, something that’s been utilized by various federal, state, and city law enforcement agencies for over two decades.

Hey, liberals. You can't have it both ways. You love to extol multi-cultural-ism, you enshrine ethnic and racial identity above American identity. You can't complain when groups are singled out on this basis when you encouraged the whole "roots" thing.

Second, it's looking like ACLU actually works for China, Russia and CAIR, and their employers are tightening the screws.

Thanks for tipping your hand with this "outcry," ACLU.

If I were looking for trasonous batardes why I’d pick the ACLU every single time!

There is an important lie in this.

Chinese is not a race. Mongoloid is the race. Chinese is the citizenship background.

Russian is not a race. Eureopean is the race. Slavic is the race subset. Russian is the citizenship background.

Even IF this were true (and I HOPE it is) this is NOT racial profiling. They were not picking out slavs "evil slope-headed slavs" or mongoloids "evil slinty-eyed mongoloids". THAT would be racism. This would be a focus on a CITIZENSHIP BACKGROUND which is COMPLETELY REASONABLE.

Stop letting them define the terms then hammering us on the terms they have defined.

Cops need to be looking at the areas and people most likely to produce criminals. It’s called bang for the buck.

If there was racial profiling, we wouldn’t have to put up with the TSA, and we wouldn’t have to put up with the hassle of stupid lawsuits that block our state immigration laws, when virtually every illegal alien in Alabama and Georgia has a certain physical description.

How ironic as this is all the ACLU does! I.e. “F*ck him, he’s white” and “all men are rapists” and “Israelis continue to persecute those peace-loving Jihadists.”

Finally, some good news.

I also assume that when they're looking for traitors, they profile based on ACLU membership.

If they don't, we're in worse trouble than I thought.

The ACLU is the most despicable and dangerous organization in the US today. They are even more dangerous than CAIR and a lot of other radical left wing and racist groups. They are very influential and have friends in high places. They also have a ton of money. And they have backing among certain groups (who I won't mention) in both West Los Angeles and New York. They are very powerful in that they have lots of money and scum of the earth attorneys who will work for peanuts to advance a leftist political agenda. They get massive amounts of cash from West Los Angeles and New York. They are truly the devils advocate.

Oh how I hate this organization.

I was recently profiled by the TSA. I was selected to go through a scanner. I am a white male of European descent (early 40s) travelling with my wife. When my scan was complete I observed a burka clad female exit the scanner. I dont believe that it would be a great leap of logic to surmise that I was selected to balance out the racial beans that were being counted.
