Facts are not derogatory, they're facts. The whole point of the statement was to point out that if you wanted to justify racial profiling you could use that fact to do it. Try another one: a higher number of Arabs are aircraft hijackers than of any other race. Again, a fact to support a profile. So how do you justify a spousal abuse profile? You can't because there are no facts to support it. What's ironic about your line of thinking is that making accusations based on facts disturbs you, but making accusations based on hearsay a-ok. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Sams Teach Yourself Regular Expressions in 10 Minutes by Ben Forta http://www.houseoffusion.com/banners/view.cfm?bannerid=40 Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:5:153871 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/5 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:5 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.5 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
