Lets suppose I walked around a town with a rifle slung on my should (think of a local town you frequent)
Now, would I be 'profiled'? You bet. I certainly would draw quite a few warry stares. (In fact, I bet I would get th police called on me.)
Now if I were 'muslim looking person' with no gun, walking down the street, I am sure I may be profiled by some people as well, though not as harshly.
If I were a muslim walking down the street with a rifle slung on my shoulder (nothing illegal there), I'm sure I would instantly be in a world of hurt.
no point, just food for thought (and I felt sorry for you having to respond to yourself)
