Do you believe racial profiling is a serious issue in the US?

Asked by cutiepi92 (2252points) July 18th, 2013

Just lately after web surfing it seems like a lot of people just don’t get it. I’ve seen an abundance of comments saying it doesn’t happen or people are playing the “race card” yet things like this:

happen all the time and there are examples everywhere. Even with this, I don’t see how many can believe that the Trayvon Martin case wasn’t racially motivated. Do I think America has gotten SLIGHTLY more progressive? Of course. But I think that too many people believe that having a “black president” is enough but lately it seems like racial arguments have only gotten worse.

I’m just asking this to hear other people’s opinions and thoughts.
