This was one of my "WebbysWords" from 2010. I did an update to include the latest happenings.
I'm all for profiling the Mexican, Islamic, and any other shady character lookalikes. Why should they be special most everyone else gets profiled every day. .
The days of Political Correctness have to end.
So what if your feelings get hurt. At least you aren't bleeding to death.
If your hangin with some folks who dress in camo, you get
profiled as a militia maniac.
If you keep your hair long and
your a male you get profiled as a Hopeless Hippy.
If your clothes are not quit up to the standards of some, you get
profiled as a homeless bum.
If you wear a nice suit, black shirt, with a light colored tie you might get profiled
as a Italian hit man or similar type of character.
If your male and dress in the clothing of the opposite sex, talk weird, and don't have a firm hand shake your profiled as Queer.
Gravitationally challenged people are profiled constantly and are now being
targeted by the "Food Police".
So why not Profile brown skinned people in Arizona?
Blacks have put up with it for centuries.
If you have tattoos you are profiled a certain way.
If you have body piercings covering your body you are profiled.
First impressions are not only for the job interview.
First impressions say things about you to others. If your first impression is different from what's expected then you better have a backup plan. If you are not what you look like the real you will show up when you speak.
What kind and how much education you have will be revealed when you open your mouth.
Actions we share with "the guys" are usually different than the ones we put forth when with our family or business partners, clergy, girl friends, or on a job interview.
Lets face it America. We are all biased in one way or another. It's only that most people, most of the time, control their biases and act civil towards one another. For me my bias is not based on skin color or obesity,or clothing. It's the attitude of the dude. And how one presents him or her self.
The only way to get to know someone is to profile "that first impression". Whether in your mind or openly so they know they're being profiled and can act accordingly.
SO LETS PROFILE AWAY ARIZONA, WE ALL DO IT. But lately We must do it more diligently
