One of my sisters is a Syrian Catholic. Because she las fairly light skin for a Syrian person, she gets mistaken for being Italian most of the time. In one of her Criminal Justice classes, they had a debate on racial profiling and whether or not airlines and other places should be allowed to use racial profiling. She was fuming when the guy she liked said that he supports it and is in favor of it. A couple of weeks later, she was flying and ended up sitting a couple seats away from a Muslim man. Despite the fact that her entire family is from the Middle East, she was still uncomfortable with his presence there, and later told me that after that, she realized why her crush supported racial profiling and that now she probably does too.
