This is just like an episode of 30 Rock I saw last night. Tina Fey's character thinks her new neighbor is a terrorist because he has maps on his wall, she sees him and a friend doing some obstacle course thing at the park, and he gets a package that was accidentally sent to her door. So she calls the feds and he gets arrested. Then she finds a package from him at her door, asks her to play it because she's in the media and when she does...it's an application to Amazing Race.

So what happens when white people aren't the "majority" anymore? What happens when your rights are infringed on because you "look" different? You "sound" different? You wear "funny looking" clothes?

All those reasons above are just ridiculous. "Well it COULD have been a terrorist." I "could" be a lot of things but I know I'm not. Anyone "could" be a terrorist. Let's all get on the paranoia train...

If 99.99% of all hijackings had been perpetrated by white males in their mid-40's with gray hair, a receding hairline, clean-shaven, and wearing Dockers, then I'd anticipate that because I fit that description to a "t", I'd be getting a little extra attention from security.
