I feel myself entering a highly agitated rant mode: I really hate it, no I loathe it, when people assume that just because a certain culture of people are incarcerated, that means most American's are racially profiling them. The honest to god truth is many immigrants and illegal Latinos from Mexico are poor, and poverty breeds crime and that's a fact! Why a good majority of blacks are still living in poverty for so long, I really have no idea. Here in California, specifically on the south coast, there is no discrimination or racism blatantly present; that's not to say there aren't a few idiots running around waving whatever banners they can think up, but you just don't see it around here! Maybe where I'm from is not a slice of the America most people are familiar with, but from what I've witnessed with my own eyes, the majority of the people doing these crimes are in fact those living at the poverty level, which happen to be Latinos no speaking much English and working agricultural jobs (and their kids living in this condition). The majority of black kids in LA dress the part of their contemporaries which happen to be rappers dressed like thugs because lets face it, when the most popular group of the type of people you associate yourself with strike a certain look, then as a young adult, you will imitate that look. This is the only reason I can think that blacks might be getting in more trouble than Caucasian, Asians, or other minority groups in the US, but to be racially profiled? Your so wrong! In LA, these individuals dressed like gang-bangers, staring down cops, hiding their hands deep in their pockets to give the impression they are hiding a gun, and even running away from cops and then they get upset when they are pulled over saying, "I wasn't doing anything, I'm being discriminated against!" I've actually seen this shit in LA! It's the real deal! If your stupid enough to dress the part of a murderer or gang-banger, then you deserve to be searched for drugs or weapons in order to protect those not wanting to cause trouble. Dressing the part for trouble only asks for trouble, and as a law-abiding citizen, I expect the police to search people who intentionally dress like criminals. You don't see business men wearing pants down to their crotch, wife-beaters, untied shoes, and teardrop tattoos strutting down the street looking like they are doing a freaking limbo with their hand held in their pocket holding something and running from police... And to be fair, when Caucasians and Asians dress this way, they also get checked. It just so happens from what I've seen with my own eyes in LA, certain types of people really do dress the part, and it's not about no racial profiling, but protecting law-abiding citizens from CRIMINALS!!! What don't you get?

EDIT: So you want to talk about racial profiling for Native Americans (i.e. Indians not from India) or Arabic/Islamic people? My rant does not go there sorry. I've never had any experience with either culture other than the people I've met, and there's good and bad people. I just don't see this "racial profiling" thing happening, at least not here where I'm from, sorry. I really don't.

QUICK-EDIT: For clarity, racial profiling resulting in discrimination, but you already knew that Kandrathe Big Grin .
