So...I still keep reading articles about global warming...er climate change...er environmental shifts...er...whatever they're calling it now. And "overwhelming" data and evidence. I assume those that provide the "overwhelming" evidence and data are professionals and have done much research. They say, taking an objective look, one has no choice but come to the conclusion that fossil fuels and human activity are causing it. They say how dare we disagree. The data is so clear. When they see a Hummer SUV, or Ford F250, or V8 gas guzzling sports car....they say those cars are killing the planet. The data is clear, right? They say the coal plants are killing the planet. The studies and data clearly show it. Right?
Well, why is it that, such as the Trayvon Martin case, the FBI and all police agencies can provide pure, hard data....clearly studied and collected by the professionals, the highest level of law enforcement (FBI), under a black president, and a black top cop- DOJ head Eric Holder......................why is it that if the data says that while the black population makes up a small % of our population, they commit an "overwhelming" % of violent crimes relative to their demographics total population?
Why is it they find it ok to "profile" a certain type of car or industry....based on hard data......but find it absolutely shocking, damning, and nearly worth the death penalty to dare make a profile based on crime statistics????????????????
Some say it's profiling. I say it's looking at hard data, and focusing our attention on the problem areas and problem individuals. I say thats the only way to stop the trend. I say the only way we can address this problem is to look at what or who is causing most of the problem. Then make laws or take proactive action to interrupt this activity, address these individuals, even if it inconveniences a few others.
Oh, I'm talking about climate change in that last paragraph. Profiling for crime prevention is as wicked as the devils toe.
