MYFOXNY.COM - Fernando Mateo, president of the New York State Federation of Taxi Drivers, is telling cab drivers that for their own protection they should profile potential passengers who are black and Latino.
Mateo, who identifies himself as both black and Hispanic, made his comments this week after a livery cab driver was shot several times by a man police describe as Hispanic. The suspect was wearing a hooded sweatshirt, which Mateo has said is a red flag.

Blacks and hispanics in large cities are more likely to commit a crime than their non-white counterparts. This should be a wake up call to the leadership in these black and hispanic communities; but of course they'll ignore the truth of it and attack the messenger like good little goose-stepping liberals.
