[a fool in paradise]

I think my mayor wants to bring Nat’l LGBT sports to my town by building a stadium for it.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

What does racial profiling have to do with asking someone not to walk down the middle of the street?

[E. Pluribus Unum]

It doesn't matter if it's all a lie to these people. Matter of fact, they probably prefer a lie. It's what they're accustomed to doing themselves.

[P.O.E.]

dumbasses.

[IronJack]

We need t-shirts that say “Hands up. Don’t loot!l

I don't think that I've EVER seen a picture more in need of a caption.

I'll leave it up to far wittier FReepers than I......

This rhetoric..."...shooting of an unarmed black teenager'. fails to mention Mr. Brown's weight, 200 lbs and 6+'tall and the demeanor of a BULLY...he was a large Negro with an Attitude.

290lbs and 6 foot, 5 inches is what I’ve heard. That’s college/NFL linebacker territory, isn’t it? Sergeant Wilson looks to be about 5 foot 9 inches tall and maybe 180lbs if I had to guess.

[2ndDivisionVet]

What’s really sad is that is probably the cream of the crop.

Cultural profiling will still be ok. Once a subculture is suspected the suspect can be profiled along size, age, dress, and color lines

Howard University students pose for a powerful photo by student Leighton Watson

Perhaps the photo lost its power during transmission to my monitor, but all I see are a bunch of people with their hands in the air.

[MrB]

who had just severely beaten a police officers face,
and was charging him to finish the job.

[WayneS]

Only white people have to walk on the sidewalk.

Telling a white person to get out of the road is okay. Telling a black person to get out of the road is the worst kind of racial profiling, and is also probably a hate crime...

[MrB]

“How Evil Works”

People do indeed prefer lies to the truth.
Especially when the lie is “it’s not your fault”.

[Eaker]

They are complaining that not enough queers are being shot by cops.

Challenge accepted!

Pictured is a response by 4th year abnormal psychology students at a local community college responding to the instructor’s request for “a show of hands” of everyone knowing what the term “defendant” means.

[kevkrom]

I think what I posted on another thread is appropriate here as well.

[re_nortex]

Racial profiling is an effective method to attack crime.

[Third Person]

Stupid sheep.

[OldNewYork]

What does ‘prohibiting racial profiling’ even mean - choosing to allow yourself to be beaten if it’s a black person doing it until statistics equalize?
