PC run Amok: Police can't even DESCRIBE criminals without being "RACISTS"

From the article:
If a person of Hispanic origin rapes a woman and, in an attempt to catch this violent criminal, police publish a description identifying the suspect's general racial makeup, is that a "racist" thing to do? Apparently the folks at KMYL (1190 AM) in the metro Phoenix, Arizona area think it is. It appears that we cannot even discuss the basic appearance of a wanted criminal now without being "racist" about it all.

The story comes to us from The East Valley Tribune, where the paper quotes the vice president for programming at KMYL as saying that calling a criminal an Hispanic is "racial profiling." And what is her reasoning?
Story Continues Below Ad ↓

(Mayra) Nieves said Hispanic is an ethnicity, not a race -- and many Hispanics are white or black. She said ethnicity should not be used when describing an attacker. Instead she said she would describe the Chandler Rapist as having "dark skin."

Even her "explanation" contradicts itself. If a "Hispanic" can be white or black, why should the rapist be called "dark skinned"? After all, what is the definition of "dark"? To an albino, even a white person is dark skinned... or can I say albino without somehow being a racist?

Is it really a racist thing when we are given a generalized description of a wanted criminal's race or is it just good police work? It would seem to anyone with an ounce of sense that the later is the answer here. After all, if police are looking for a white Ford Bronco, should the police report describe the auto in oblique terms? (Such as calling the vehicle a "somewhat colorless, large American car that could be thought of as a sport utility vehicle, not that we are impugning all SUVs.") Or should the police just say it is a white Ford Bronco? Which one would more easily get the public to lend assistance with finding the vehicle?

ever listen to a police radio?
the perp is black man in jeans and a white t shirt about 90% of the time.
its sad.

watch bill cosby's racial rant on you tube bitching at black people telling them its their own fault they are oppressed.

Her last name is Nieves; do the math. She is either Hispanic or married to a Hispanic. Her position on this is absolutely ridiculous.

If SHE got mugged, she could probably tell you if it was a Mexican, Guatemalan or Salvadoran, and I'm sure she'd tell the copsw exactly who they were looking for. Unless she was gonna have her own vatos handle it, that is...

Well lerxt and spert thanks for answering. I was beginning to think we should just change the name of this site to wilthrill.com because it seems I'm "preaching to the choir" and no one feels the need to disagree.

I KNOW there are some who disagree but they must be busy with life.

And following off what you said Lerxt, if the perp were a WHITE MALE all of these liberals wouldn't have a problem with the police mentioning THAT!!!!

Then it wouldn't be "profiling"just as when Jesse Jackson calles NYC "hymietown" it isn't anti-semitic.

Liberals do not care about race, gender, TOLERANCE or free speech. They care only about that which they AGREE with!!!

I know how she feels. I hate it. I get called "white" all the time. I'm German/Irish-not white. Fucking racists!

wilthrill · 12-06-2007, 09:14 AM

Yes, Mikael and I get called "Brad Pitt" all of the time too.

It's such a pain in the ass having hot chicks swoon all over me. You know I DO have a brain and where are your eyes going? My eyes are up here damnit!

I'm average looking not "SEXY". Fucking women!!!!!!

I was watching Gangland on the History Channel a few weeks ago, and two members from the Aryan Brotherhood were talking about who they were allowed to associate with. And apparently there are two types of Mexicans (I forget what they were called) they can talk to and one they can't. Ironic, that racists know more about the different races from Mexico than most of us.

Well it is sort of like Ireland.

Somehow an Irishman can identify a catholic versus a protestant just by looking at them.

Which of course points out the utter stupidity of racism!!!
