Muslims/Arabs who feel they have been unjustly "profiled" in airports or aboard airplanes recently, or critics who are crying out against profiling or saying people shouldn't feel scared/nervous if they board a plane with 3 or more Muslims/Arabs sitting together should ask themselves this question and answer it honestly: "If I (as/if I were) a person of color, were standing by the side of the road in the outskirts of Jasper, Texas, and a pickup truck with 3 or more "good ol' boys" came driving up, would I be scared?" My honest answer to that is "yes." Would good ol' boys in Jasper, Texas be profiled by some of these same folks criticizing the profiling of Muslims/Arabs? I'd bet my next paycheck on it.
