Puzzle Paragraph 2

Racial profiling is an important issue that has somehow woven its way into society. While others might say that they don’t notice the impact of this problem, it is true that everyone is both a victim and a culprit to racial profiling. It seems that the only place where profiling doesn’t exist is outer space; however, the fire of this obstacle can be quelled. One day people will be able to live free of this profiling—as free as Jimi Hendrix was when he sang his version of “The Star-Spangled Banner” in front of a crowd of hippies. Kids won’t have to go through the experiences Jeannette Walls described in her book The Glass Castle and the racism that reigned over her father’s hometown Welch. Although, the answer to this dilemma is something even Brent Staples doesn’t want to propose—he is aware that racial profiling has infected the core of society and won’t be so easily extracted from society’s habits. People will continue to be victims and culprits of profiling and feed this fire with their fear of the unknown.  It is clear that even the opponents leave it to the fates to extinguish this fire of racial profiling.
