Please forgive me, but I've sure become more suspicious and prejudicial since 9/11.

If I hear Arabic being spoken anywhere in my vicinity I take a good look at the folks, especially if they're young males.

A month or so ago I was browsing in one of my favorite gun stores when four college age Arabic speaking men pulled up in a brand new Mercedes. They were interested in looking only at M-4 style firearms. I stood and watched them the entire time that they were in there and they knew I was looking at them. In retrospect I probably should have written down the license plate number of the vehicle and given it, as well as a SALUTE report, to the FBI.
