Breaking News: Not All Racial Profiling Is Un-American

In post-rational America, racial profiling has become the ‘go to’ defense for those who are as guilty as hell but need some way to escape justice.

The lengths to which some minorities will go to exploit racial profiling are both maddening and mind boggling.

An example, as reported, in part, at discriminations.com back in 2004:

“OAKLAND -- Oakland police officers have stopped setting up roadblocks to check whether drivers are under the influence because of a rash of complaints from the Latino community and City Council President Ignacio De La Fuente.

“The checkpoints, which allow officers to demand licenses and proof of insurance, are an effective way to get drunken drivers off Oakland's streets, city leaders agree. But the checks also have ensnared dozens of illegal immigrants who are not licensed to drive yet otherwise obey the law.”

Why would any responsible, thinking adult conclude that protecting illegal immigrants is a greater priority than getting drunken drivers off the road? What would motivate such stupidity?

The answer: Hispanic racism.

Ignacio De La Fuente was so obsessed with protecting fellow Hispanics that he lost sight of the needs of the community at large.

Unfortunately, De La Fuente is hardly alone in his willingness
to sacrifice the greater good in order to carry water for illegal aliens because those criminals happen to be Hispanic.

As reported, in part, at rollcall.com, the Hispanic caucus in the House of Representatives threatened to sabotage Nancy Pelosi’s
health care blowout in order to advance the cause of illegal aliens:

“Congressional Hispanic Caucus Chairwoman Nydia Velázquez (D-N.Y.) warned President Barack Obama on Thursday that 20 members of her caucus are prepared to vote against the House Democratic health care plan if language restricting the rights of illegal immigrants to buy insurance is added to the bill.

“Velázquez met with Obama at the White House with a handful of other CHC members, including House Democratic Caucus Vice Chairman Xavier Becerra (D-Calif.) and Reps. Charlie Gonzalez (D-Texas) and Lucille Roybal-Allard (D-Calif.).”

Imagine that! Velazquez was willing to abandon health care reform for 300 million Americans in order to protect people who do not belong in the country to begin with, and who certainly do not deserve insurance coverage,

Why? Because of the Hispanic ethnicity of the invading criminals.

Apparently, racial profiling is not a bad thing when used to seat Hispanics at the public trough!

Five Muslim illegal immigrants detained in New York after Middle Eastern terrorists attacked the area on September 11 have won $1.26 million from the U.S. government to settle a lawsuit accusing federal authorities of violating their rights.

The illegal aliens were among 170 Arab and Muslim men jailed for immigration law violations in New York during post 9/11 roundups. The nation had just suffered the worst terrorist attack in history at the hands of Middle Eastern extremists and security was on high alert, especially in the area surrounding the Big Apple.

The Middle Eastern immigration violators were jailed at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn and most have been deported. The five who sued the government claimed that then Attorney General John Ashcroft, prison personnel, FBI supervisors and other officials violated their rights by imprisoning them on the basis of their race and religion. The Muslims from Pakistan, Egypt and Turkey assert that they were illegally detained victims of racial profiling.

In a separate lawsuit another illegal immigrant detained during the same period, Ehab Elmaghraby, settled with the U.S. government for $300,000 a few years ago. He was deported to his native Egypt in 2003 after pleading guilty to credit card fraud. Like the five who just settled, Elmaghraby claimed in his lawsuit that he was beaten in jail and denied access to phones and lawyers.

A New York-based social justice group represented the Muslims who just got a check from Uncle Sam. In the lawsuit attorneys alleged that the “non-citizens” were swept up by federal agents in a racial profiling dragnet following 9/11. The complaint accuses the government of violating the illegal aliens’ rights under the First, Fourth and Fifth Amendments and under international human rights law. No mention that they violated federal law by living in the U.S. illegally.
