Stereotypes make life convenient and efficient sometimes.

Stereotypes are sometimes rooted in truth. However it is almost always rooted in a truth that doesn't apply to anything near the majority of whom it is projected upon. Every so often you will in fact find individuals that would make you think a particular stereotype was based on them.

That's not the point. He has been in trouble with the law before. In fact, I think he served a year in county jail.

Of course, I do. Who wouldn't? lol

Martha Stewart got convicted for a white collar crime. People rarely get arrested for white collar crimes.

Snoop has been arrested and spent time in jail for doing stereotypical crimes for the group he portrays.

Do you know what a felon is? Do you understand the implication of how stereotype can affect ones perspective of the photo?
