How do you spell liberal? : H-Y-P-O-C-R-I-T-E
Im confused, are you saying racial profiling is wrong and that liberals were right the whole time and they are now hypocrites for supporting it?

OR

are you saying they were wrong the whole time, and by being hypocrites, they are right in changing their minds ?

this whole thing is ridiculous unless there are large numbers which can support...then it becomes a mathematical reality...a statistician would have made those guys look like absolute idiots....there is WAY too much talk about racism and all it does is cause more....CNN should be fined because they should know better and if not, too bad ignorance is no excuse.

Whites want and do believe they're race has no issues hence the defensive tone whenever you try to pin something negative on them, immediately blacks are brought up.

White man kills 100 people, he's a loner, strange individual. They avoid labeling themselves at all cost.

That's because terrorism would have been his motivation.

Like Hispanic: "Muslim" ain't a race either. Not all of them are dark skin and, Arabs ARE "white" tho not pasty in color.

This deserves a repost. These idiots can't think and are missing the point.
