If they had a suitcase or rucksack and they were looking shifty. People may assume the worst.

So all Iraqi's are terrorists ?,
or "someone who looks like one", looks like what ?
arabic ?, of middle eastern descent
well thats certainly a catch all stereotype you are prepetuating, perhaps you think all Muslims are terrorists too - there is a certain kind who think that way.
Here you are perpetuating the myth that if they look a certain way - namely arabic, or of middle east descent they are terrorists.
franky, THAT .....I find racist.
true colours indeed.

This actual situation was mentioned on the news.
A man of an Iraqi or Arab appearance was travelling on the tube and exactly what I quoted, did actually happen.
It is a racist view and people should NOT assume that.
Just like, people on this forum, assuming that Jade Goody is a racist and has a bullyish nature,
On & Off reality shows.
THIS IS WHAT PEOPLE ARE ASSUMING AND THAT IS WHY JADE GOODY IS IN THIS SITUATION!!
