Yesterday I went to the amusement park with my girlfriend and obviously, they need to check your bags and stuff. They check everyone's back regularly and when it was my turn, the decided to check and smell in and around my bag. I wasn't offended but I was like "WTF" lol. Like I kinda look like that kind of kid that would bring illegal things in the park but isn't it a bit stereotypical that I'm the only one that got their bag smelled? Just because the way I look? Lemme know what you think.

Well, if it was your job to stop people bringing drugs into the park and someone looked as if they might have drugs on them, you would think that they would search you extra to make sure you definately don't have drugs on you.

It's their job to stop people bringing contraband items into the park, you're not going to expect an eighty five year old pensioner to be carrying drugs but you might expect a kid who looks suspicious.

If anything they were doing their job, which is to search people who look suspicious. Everything is stereotypical if you act like a child, like saying like someone is pretty is prejudging because they could have a plastic face or be a hologram. People get triggered by everything now I guess.
