Amen to that. You kind of lost me with the red light camera argument
(I hate them too, but what was your point again?) However I think the
above is the heart of what has bothered me in this thread. I've lived
in neighborhoods that were majority black, majority Mexican or
majority Hispanic. I currently live in one of the original
neighborhoods in Albuquerque, and most of my neighbors have been there
for generations. "Don't belong around here" might as well be my middle
name.

I remember when I was in New Orleans, a city cop gave me a really
dirty look for taking pictures on St Claude and Rampart. I am not sure
whether he felt I was playing tourist in the wrong place, was
potentially shark chum, or both. But he left me the hell alone, as
well he should have.

We have big problems that we *know* we have without cluttering up our
minds wondering why that bearded guy is walking down a public street
