In 'Merica.
Incarceration has absolutly NOTHING to do with profiling. Harrassment or arrest is the direct result of profiling. Only conviction through Trial by jury or a guilty plea can effect the number of incarcerations.
If there are more of one group of people in prision, then like it or not more of that group has pleaded guilty or have been found guilt by a jury of their peers based on the avaiable evidence.
I for one am glad 'those people' (someone wake up stimbo and tell him to read this post, im sure he will agree) are in Prision. If they weren't and the Criminals were allowed to run free then we would be living in the net result of a Zombie apocalypse, without the Zombies. In that humanity is preying on humanity, and soceity would collaps in on itself.

So... You wont watch and comment on a video that clearly uses Gestapo propaganda style tactics targeted at our youth...
But you will comment, and say you believe that a person's skin color predisposes them to criminal behavior?
Wow... Just wow.
Yup, you completely accurately assessed my point, Nazi-comparison man. Wonderful appraisal skills.
