I wasn't that overjoyed by Obama's when I was a teen and profiled speech but get why he had to do it this time. Shit I am the same age and was constantly profiled as a teen as well. We were all long haired hippies doing drugs looking for trouble to the greatest generation in control back in the mid to late 1970's. Yeah I know it was worse for kids who looked black but harping on that as an excuse your entire life is beyond pathetic to me. Are you telling me no woman alone going to her car or alone in an elevator doesn't think about her safety when it is a white guy? Most anyone be it a kid, female or more mature adult will be more protective when they see young males of any race who appear to have a look or swagger about them...Comes with the territory...It is just a fact who commits most violent crimes.. Deal with it..
