So, I'll readily admit at this point that the kid and his family are scummy people, but I still think the incident outed a lot of people as bigots in that school.
See? This is what I don't get. I don't see a problem with profiling.
Personally, I've gotten profiled 3 times in memory in American airports. Nowhere else has it happened in any other country in the world that I've visisted. But you know what? Personally, I don't mind. If this is what keeps security personnel thinks they need to do to keep ppl safe and drugs/contraband out of the hands of bad ppl, I'll gladly go through with it. And I'm not even American, I don't have to live there (well, I did for a while when I got married, but I've since moved back home now).
Ppl need to take cut the PC sh!t down a notch. If ppl fear for their life or the life of others, it doesn't matter if it seems racist or not, they SHOULD report it. And if some turd-muncher is trying to create a scare just to get a rise out of ppl (making the job of security/law enforcement even more difficult), he SHOULD get reported, too.
I mean seriously.
