Racial Profiling

First of all no offense is meant by this post to any person from any race. However if you are honest you will agree with me. This article to me shows that we are treating terrorism like the Emporer Who Wore No Clothes.

The peole who have done most(not all) have been middle eastern men. Would it not make sense to show them a little more attention than others? I don't mind being pulled out of a line to be searched and scritinized, but use some common sense here.

We just had one of our own soldiers who was a muslim kill people from his own company because they might kill some of his "muslim brothers". Surprise, Surprise he had a middle eastern name and is from middle eastern descent.

Human beings tend to try to defend themselves. We know what happened when we were fighting the Japanese. Crimes against them rose rapidly. This is not right. In my opinion any crime against any person no matter what the motivation deserves the same punishment and it should be harsh. I am talking about the people who would commit any crime against a middle eastern person, gay person, black person, white person, male, or female.

My point is that we know where the bulk of the attention should be applied yet we ignore it.
