Dear Friends:
As everyone may know some fool recently tried to blow up a plane (in Detroit). I believe the explosives were in his underwear (so I’m presuming he was ready to die. If the explosives had malfunctioned he may have wished he were dead) and now American citizens (myself included) are, once again, worrying about airplane security.
Terrorism is a serious threat, on that EVERYONE can agree. However, guess who this is going to directly effect? Give up? Black men (young, old, short, fat, tall, ugly, handsome, fish, fowl, and etc al). Racial profiling will now become the modous operandi. So fellas leave your dildos at home because your privacy will be effectively compromised starting…Three days ago. Seeing as the alleged terrorist looks like every guy named Peanut Jenkins on every Martin Luther King BLVD across the nation it’s safe to say that, regardless of his heritage, black men (of all ethnicities. That goes for you too Tiger Woods) would be best served showing up at the airport with nothing but bathrobes on. Just don’t poke anybody’s eyes out with those things brothas…hahahahaha.
Seriously…
The way certain people are expounding upon the virtues of profiling we all need to show up to the airports naked, coupled with portable X-Ray machines (to avoid the humiliation of a cavity search).
I’ve yet to see anyone come up with any viable alternatives to racial profiling. Funny how this course of action was not on the table when the threat was confined to Middle Eastern Terrorists. But now that the terrorists are African it’s an option?
Sincerely,
Toddy English

Dumb, lazy and DANGEROUS has been the ongoing stereotype for black males; now the term dangerous will move to the forefront of the social- constructed stereotype.
