"BTW, RU aware that when a carload of white kids is cruising through Washington Heights, the police pull it over and search it because those white boys aren't usually seen in those parts?"

Jack, he is a banker
and Jane, she is a clerk

        The reason you don't hear about it: People don't use anti-white bias as a political football. - JacksSmirkingRevenge - 1:44pm 7/25/09

    - Profiling - OCgoldendome - 12:09pm 7/25/09
      - That is the problem. Instead of working out what the facts and truths - jimbasil - 12:23pm 7/25/09
        I don't think anyone is saying the police were wrong for responding to a call. - JacksSmirkingRevenge - 12:29pm 7/25/09

        How do you know? - JacksSmirkingRevenge - 12:25pm 7/25/09
        Because the black cop said it wasn't. It is a worthwhile issue, but shouldn't be raised EVERY time - TontoGoldstein - 12:35pm 7/25/09
        I agree in part, disagree in part. - JacksSmirkingRevenge - 12:46pm 7/25/09
