Several weeks ago, a small incident made news in central Connecticut. Three dark-skinned, adult males were observed using a video camera at one of the local reservoirs. Local law enforcement was called in, along with the FBI, to detain and question the individuals, who, it was later reported, were on a benign mission, making a home movie in a pseudo-wilderness setting.
Possessing no other knowledge of the incident, I can only assume that the accosted individuals were either completely understanding of the post 9-11 need for heightened security for our public water supply, humiliated at the indignity of being questioned mainly as a result of the color of one’s skin, or a little of both.
