Today while getting on the train into NYC I saw a Middle Eastern man standing by the door with a shady briefcase that had a sticker that said 'United Nations' on it.
Yeah he looked crazy and out of place, not crazy cause he's Arabic or whatever but he had the crazy eyes. Had the towel, beard, the works. Very uncommon for the burbs where I live. He looked lost.
I always see the regulars there with their routine, this guy had none. I was sure the train was going to blow up so I sat in the front car. Then half way into the trip a bunch of state troopers did the walk by.
So am I a racist for judging people? What's the deal with this?
Am I a prick or what?
Anyone else think this?

I was in a train about a year ago when some Indian guy got in. Headband, easy going minding his own business.
A group of eight year old schoolkids were all giggly and 'whispering' obviously the man could hear it saying theres Bin Laden theres Bin Laden.
Wonder what kind of stories those kids hear at home about foreigners?!Poor fella.

it's instinct man...not rascist. It's a sign of the times..I do the same thing when I travel on the tube here and see a muslim guy or girl acting shady...it's silly...and yet - the threat is there so why not be cautious....

you should've sat down and started a conversation about brianna banks, tracing her career from obscure beginning to the present popularity and the films which brought about her rise to stardom.
a good icebreaker even with crazy people.

I have to admit I'm always on the outlook for shady characters no matter what nationality.
