Profiling Schmofiling

Ever since the 60's, we have been turning ourselves into a nation of weenies and wimps. What we need is a good war that all the men fight in to kick the sensitivity out of us and toughen us up.

What difference does who profiles who make our safety is the bottom line? After all, the stereotypes don't come out of the thin air. If the Mexican population doesn't want us to profile them, then they should either have stayed south of the border or encouraged their compadres to clean up their act before coming here. Maybe they could become like those Jehovah's Witness people in suits, skirts and ties toting a briefcase full of pamphlets. Maybe they could have become like Amway salespeople.

Either way, I'd rather someone hurt my feelings by profiling me than to have my head end up in Newark, my feet in Poughkeepsie and my arms in Times Square because of that goose called political correctness. Also, there is waayyyy too much hysteria over Arizona immigration law sb 1070. It says that those with a reasonable suspicion of being here illegally will be stopped and will have to produce a document like a passport. That doesn't mean that everyone in a certain ethnic persuasion is going to be caught in the same butterfly net with all the fruits and the nuts.

If there were ever a cause for this nation to secede from itself, this is it. The majority of us who want the law to one side and the rest to towns near the border.
