I know some will call this "racist." But this is the self proclaimed personality of these people. Arnold's illustration was of a man he knew who no doubt felt this to be so.(Oliva)
Personally, I am a "white bread" American who once was engaged to a Pueto Rican lady who greatly changed my viewpoint on "life."
If a group of people claim a character trait as their own, and a white person then acknowledges such- is that "racist?"

Thanks,

Just for the record.

I never injected the word race, racism, or racist into the argument.

The word profiling can apply to any number of individual considerations.

I like rye and wheat bread myself but alas like you am a white dude by birth, no matter how much hip hop and reggae I listen to. ;-)

The Diversity Police Gestapo say, "YES!"
