A Touchy Subject

A Potentially Touchy Subject...

“The ACLU's Campaign Against Racial Profiling fights law enforcement and private security practices that disproportionately target people of color for investigation and enforcement. We represent individuals who have been victims of racial profiling by airlines, police, and government agencies. Our work also encompasses major initiatives in public education and advocacy, including the creation of essential resources, lobbying for the passage of data collection and anti-profiling legislation, and litigation of airline and highway profiling cases.”

Look, if you haven’t noticed, I’m not an ACLU fan. If you really think about it, what we need to do is not to racially profile, but rather religiously profile. Luckily, the ACLU hasn’t covered that area.

There seems to be some sort of trend with the people who are attacking us, coming in from the outside and even so with “home-grown” terrorism. I really hope that the American public has made this connection in that it is mainly Muslims (yes I know that Timothy Mcveigh was a white agnostic and that Bill Ayers was “protesting”) that are attacking us, and several other innocent communities abroad, please note: Islam transcends specific races and is all over the world.

Now before you self-loathing left wingers call me a hate monger, there is something you should know, that I am NOT generalizing Muslims, I am simply stating a fact. Now I think that if you are still lost as to why they would attack us I would suggest taking a nice long look at their holy text called, The Koran. In several places it clearly, not only condones violence, but provides instruction on exactly how to and why they commit these acts of violence.

For those of us who have a copy of the constitution handy, as I do, the first amendment clearly states that “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof;...” in this sense, the government can still racially profile. I know you unicorn riders might even bring up our right to privacy, well I would pose this question to you: Is someone’s privacy worth protecting if their privacy threatens peoples lives?, the answer is a clear: NO.

The catch-22 here: On one hand people are perfectly comfortable with their religions to openly express what faith they profess, but on the other hand to single members of a religious group out for the actions of members of their community which were influenced and guided by the teachings of their religion in the name of safety (and true tolerance), is looked upon as an “invasion of their privacy”.

The real kicker here: I think that most of us who get our news from several sources are able to see that the left preys on “minority races” and clearly identifies them in the name of their convoluted oppressive agenda, but when a conservative mentions race to keep us safe, suddenly we’re hate mongers.

The question: is being pulled aside at the airport for an extra 10-15 minute search when you showed up 2 hours early, as an extra precaution for our safety, if you have nothing to hide, really inconvenient? I personally, believe that it's not.

PS-* I hope someone caught the pun in the title
