Racial profiling is flawed anyway because any particular race could just hire others to do the same thing for them. I don't care if authorities use it to question/stop people so long as they don't go any further without proof. I'm sure it helps them more than hurts.

If your logic held any water the Muslim terrorists would hire Jews to be suicide bombers. They might even hire Christians, Hindus or Buddhists, but they have not, so far.

Where does that leave you? Muslim terrorists are responsible for every Muslim terrorist escapade so far. Why not profile in order to protect ourselves from Muslim terrorists by stopping Muslim people who are acting suspiciously?

Have a nice day.

Plus I'm not sure hoe easily you could hire someone to suicide bomb. Unless you payed them, err, what exactly? They have different beliefs, so the 1000 virgins won't work, and they're gonna be dead, so material stuff won't work, so yeah, hard to hire suicide bombers since there's the whole "dead at the end of it all" issue.

There are people who would carry out a bombing if their family was taken care of. I would consider it myself although the price would be up there.....

One only needs to recruit the same demographic the current extremist are being pulled from.................

I get racially profiled all the time. Last time (month ago) a cop pulled me over and asked for my license, registration, etc. Then he asked me where I was going. Then he asked me if I was on probation. I have never been to jail, never even got a moving violation, and definitely make more money than this putz, and this young dick wad with a badge and gun is sweatin me in my own neighborhood? I checked out and he just left. Didn't even feel the need to make up some sh1t like a flaky tail light or something. Now imagine some random jerkoff in an SUV flagging me over and asking who I am and what am I doing?

People need to mind their own business. This isn't communist russia or china. Part of the price of freedom is the knowlege that some will abuse that freedom. That doesn't mean we throw it out the window to feel "safe".

Dude you need to make this joke more unbelievable because for a second I thought you were serious...

I hope your father is caught in the blast of a suicide bomber in the subway or something. Then his profiling will have paid off.

If he was a terrorist, he should have shot him in the face and asked questions later.

Watch one season of 24, and all of a sudden everybody's an expert on terrorists.

yep. I was a hard core hacker after I saw the matrix too.

Oh yes, racial profiling is so great! Just like all Mexicans are illegal immigrants, all blacks are on welfare, and all Polocks are dumb. Did I leave anyone out? If so I apologize. Give me a break. The guy should have kicked your daddy's ass. I know I would have. Now go back to your rich, all white suburb, in your SUV, and play with yourself.

You left out the stereotype that all of us Irish are drunks. Apology accepted. :beer::wine::beer:

 

[Tiamat]

They guy was doing some suspicious stuff -- I say your dad was inline and not profiling.

Criminal profiling != racial profiling

But, people like you aren't happy unless terrorists kill white people. :|

crimianal profiling is NOT the same as racial profiling. why is that so fricken hard for people to grasp??

 

[Whitecloak]

Really it's not hard. Kidnap someone's family and they may just do anything in their power to save them. Open your mind.

You're going to let the American dude take pics all he wants because he's not LIKELY to do the same things ? Big mistake. Racial profiling is only helpful up to a point.

Its never over the top to take notice of suspicious activites. I prolly wouldnt have approached him but taken note of him and notified the proper people.

If I'm taking pictures of the police barracks, I better have damn good reason, permission, and carry on professionally.
That said, if your Dad pulls up and asks what I'm doing, I'll answer him politely by telling him I'm taking pictures for a newspaper or whatever my reason is.
If he persists, I'll then politely ask him to go fvck himself.
If he doesn't like that, I'll provoke him untill he gives me cause to smash his face in with a tripod.
I'm funny like that.

I think your Dad did the right thing. Make sure you let us know what comes of it.

I don't know whether to laugh or cry
