CNN has lost alot of credibility over the years. They are nothing more than race baiting activists posing as journalists. Lemon is a loon and Solidad Obrian is leading CNN down the drain.
The irony here is that many White people are perfectly fine with people profiling Middle Eastern people as possible terrorist or many young Black males as potential criminals but bring up the subject of profiling White males as potential serial killers, child molesters or mass shooters and all hell breaks loose.
It would seems that many White Americans are perfectly fine point out the problems in other communities or cultures but when the same is done to them a wall of denial is thrown up.

Look it is against the law to suspect someone of a crime based on their very being that this occurs is not a matter of life being unfair but of specific government policy. Now you are either in favor of those policies or you are not in favor of those policies, but this idea that it can all be chalked up to the unfairness of life is just dumb.
I don't care about you being pulled over, and I don't care about your understanding of statiscs. Here is some basic math for you that should clear things up very quickly.
There are Millions of black men in this nation. Now if just 1% of black men were murderers then lets say there are 7million black men in America.
If just 1% of those men were murderers there would be 70,000 murders committed by black men alone every year. America has about 12,000 murders and this includes all killers.
So if 99%+ of black and hispanic men weren't murderers there would be well over 100,000 murders in this nation.
Please deal with reality.
The idea that someone would post murder statistics to justify racial profiling is idiotic given reality.
Oh, trust me, I can post A LOT more than homicide statistics that show a radical difference between the races of offenders of various crimes. One source is the 'Color of Crime': https://www.google.com/#hl=en&safe=o...w=1024&bih=673

I am not denying any differences.
What I am saying is that it is a statistical fact that 99%+ of black and hispanic men are not murderers and therefore using murder statistics to justify racial profiling is idiotic, but carry on.

Which is why I posted a Google link to 'Color of Crime'.

Carry on indeed.
Merry Christmas (seriously).
Oh my goodness, I have to spell it out for you.
The vast overwhelming majority of black and hispanic men are not criminals. So what is the point of posting crime stats?
The statistical reality is that any black or hispanic man you see is probably not a criminal thinking that the police should treat them as a criminal on the basis of skin color is evil and against the law.

I would support the profiling of white men if there were a crime that white men were disproportionately involved in.
Meth dealing and manufacturing, perhaps. Right wing terrorism.
