Outrageous Police Action or Not?

[Sasaki Kojiro]

The cop may not have a racist bone in his body. BUT

Having the litterers do a "rap" suggests implicit racism in the same fashion as if he had made native Amerinds perform a "sun dance" or if he had forced persons of Indian extraction to say "ball point pen" a few dozen times. It is trading on ridicule that is based upon the ethnicity of the individual -- NOT kopacetic.

Yeah, IF the suggestion is that liking rap music is a bad thing. This is one of those harmless assumptions that people make. Also, lot's of people like rap music, isn't it the most popular genre? "Sun dance" is hardly a fair comparison.
