You are correct, we all are for the most part mixed in some ethnic background..but how many "white" americans will admit to there non-european heritage...LOL not many.
And yes, people do treat me different BECAUSE OF THE WAY I LOOK. I am an African-American mixed, MUSLIM GIRL in CONSERVATIVE ASS OHIO! Yes I have received my fair share of looks from people, and I have been treated unfairly because of it.
I mean CuriousJ, dont' sit here and try to make it seem like we arne't including different races. Most of the people who "approve" of profiling middle easterners are conservative individuals...who thus are mostly white males. Dont' need a graph/chart to figure those numbers out.
But the point in this discussion is PROFILING MUSLIMS!

It's DISCRIMINATION..PERIOD! Did you even read my post? There have been plenty of people in this country throughout it's existance who felt that keeping a certain person of color "IN HIS PLACE" was necessary.
Profiling is Profiling...Plane and f'king simple. DO NOT sit here and say, "oh yea I believe in profiling muslims" when you really mean to say "all people from Iraq, the Sudan, Egypt, etc.
Tell me something..if you board a plane alot of you have said that you would look twice at the muslim...did you ever stop to think that ALL MUSLIMS are not "brown people" There is a such thing as the white skinned, blond haired, blue eyed muslim. And trust me, he passes you everyday...
