You get on the subject of racial profiling, and you can be assured that any minority group here is going to be pissed off.Anyway, shiet this is my house....
Therefore, there is no argument, that shit is wrong.
If you want this discussion dropped, then so shall it be dropped.

Who is Cratman? ^...................Anyways I did not want to chime in this, but I want to make a couple of opinions. I feel like profiling people at an airport is necessary and should be done. Can anyone blow up a plane, hijack, or etc? Yes........ but we did lose thousands of humans during 9/11. The arab nations(muslim extremists who believe in the 6th pillar of faith) are at war with the united states, so that is why they are the majority of the people profiled at an airport..........Not all arabs are islamic and some blacks, whites, and etc are islamic. It is not a fool proof plan. But we are trying to be proactive instead of reactive.

Another opinion that I have about the import profiling scene is that we should be as nice as drivers as possible. Kill them with kindness kind of attitude. I know this will be a tough thing to do, but for example you coming up to construction and the lane turns into one. Why not be the nice person and let cars in and wait that extra ten seconds longer. When at a stop sign, wave the person next to you if you get there at the same time. Little things like that can help change the view that some people have towards imports.......

I agree 100% with what Brian said in that last post.

Show them that you guys are no different than the rest of the people with cars.
Since I didn't get in on this in time. I have one thing racial to say. I am from a small town in the midwest. I drove a pickup with a gun in the back window, rusted (loud) exhaust, and I had fun shooting with said gun. I also drink budweiser. By you definition Jim, I am a redneck. You did just profile me, and have many times before. This illustrates the point that we all do it, including you. However, I don't care because I have, for the most part, a care free attitude. I know you are a minority Jim, as are many others. I understand that you may be upset, but please watch the insult throwing, it works both ways.

I started doing this these last few weeks of the summer months. Feels good being a nice driver. People get suprised when young kids drive the speed limit, help people with flat tires, and stop completely at stop signs even if there's no need. I suggest everyone do the same. makes driving more relaxing. -
