OscailtCéad Míle Fáilte? Racial Profiling in IrelandOver the last couple of days we have witnessed massive media hysteria about the case of Maria, a young girl supposedly abducted by a Roma couple in Greece. DNA tests and Lombroso-style racial profiling [1] have come into action in a case that has stirred the irrational anxiety that feeds racism and bigotry. Beyond the fact that child abduction is a serious issue, the "whiteness" and "blondeness" of the alleged victim have been emphasised together with the "Roma" condition of the alleged culprits. Let us remember that this is taking place in Greece, a country where blatant racism (as expressed by Golden Dawn) is on the rise, so there are good reasons to be cautious about this whole case.

Two dark haired parents can have a blond child. It's the other way around that wouldn't work, two blond parents with a dark haired child. <br />

Should have gotten at least THAT far along with genetics in high school level biology and blond vs dark hair in humans a rather obvious example of recessive vs dominance in genes (unless the schooling wants to pretend that genetics doesn't apply to humans and sticks to Mendel's tall and short in peas).
