Hairy Palm Reid, got a question for you.

If the dems are so against racial profiling as they claim, why did the dems elect as president, not once but twice, a gov by the name of Bill Clinton that was sued for ordering his Arkansas state troopers to racial profile?

I think your last statement says it all. This is to get the vote on record. Then it can be used to show the opposition as racists. It is a ploy to get the minority vote. Obvious to a thinking person, but effective on the masses.

You would think,but it won't.

Isn't going to sit well with “Our law enforcement officials who put their lives on the line every day handle their jobs with professionalism"

Precisely. My guess is race could not be used in the description of a perpetrator.

Harry Reid is not insane. He is insanely evil.

I don't think it is a ploy to get the minority vote. The Democrats already have it. Recent polls indicate that, while the percentages of minority support have gone down slightly, that is all. I agree that it is a ploy to paint the Republican Party as the party of racists, but I think the target is actually the mushy middle - the Independents who supported Obama and the Democrats in 2008 but are considering a move to the Right. The message is: “Sure, the economy is horrible, people have lost and are losing their jobs and homes. But do you really want to vote for racists?”

We’ve got horrible unemployment. The economy is crushed. Illegal aliens are bankrupting the government. We’re fighting wars to take the heat off Obama. Harry reid introduces a bill that makes no sense. I think the Democrats are afraid of that Canadian oil because it might mean that there’s enough tar to take care of them all.

I have been filling out state mandated racial profiling forms after every citizen contact for the last 12 years.

Every year Missouri releases the stats, and every year the ACLU complains that there is racial profiling. Nothing has changed. We are mandated to take an hour of racial profiling training a year. Nothing has changed with that either. In fact, stops of blacks went up. So where’s the disconnect?

This is just the Demos saying “Cops, don’t stop any people of color.”

If anything, it’s whites who are being profiled now to keep it “fair”.
