The pseudo-Royals and the flustered burnoose-wearer Ratan:
Today's news is that 85% of Americans of all shades and colors, race, religion, practice and affiliation tell that Immigration from middle east should be restricted or stopped. These are law-abiding citizens. The blacks and browns feel that they are not getting the same attention form law enforcement agencies that they were used to before. They are not being followed in the malls and shops by store security agents. They feel left out, ignored and abandoned. And they like it. I personally saw a middle east man and a fully wrapped middle east woman asked to get out of their vehicle. They were standing on the curbside with flashing law-enforcement vehicles parked askew on the road. This was a few days after the September 11th attack. They looked opulent and almost royal judging from their expensive car and the richness of the wrappings / burnoose. The man had a wheat-like complexion, was lean but not lanky and sported a precisely outlined and trimmed beard. Of course the woman must have been elegant under the wrappers, judging from the man's demeanor. We can only imagine that. I wish that the uglies are wrapped and the beauties are exposed. About fifteen minutes later, the scene melted into a motley gaggle of tourists. What were "the royals" doing in a tourist spot with expensive regalia and a shiny SUV at that point in time? They were probably trying to impress the onlookers with their expensive regalia, and suggest the fellow tourists that they were in American pursuit of happiness and recreation. They, I am sure, were sight-seeing. Yes, they have a right to go anywhere. But is it the time and place? I am sure that one of the nervous tourists with a cell phone alerted the police. What were "the Royals" doing at a such tourist spot, one of the nations's premier institutions? Trying to make the tourists nervous and test the security apparatus. Not at that point in time. Not a good idea. |
