I saw a video of someone at a techno party once who was off his face on Ket just mesmerised by a banner on the wall, first of all he was standing in front of it flapping it about for about 2 hours, then he got behind it, and kept pushing it out. When it fell off the wall the DJ stopped the music and put a spot light on him, he didn't look too happy about it! lol!

I've had friends who've spent holidays in Dubai, visting relatives who work there, and reported positively about the place. Nonetheless the article matches my innate prejudice about Dubai, so for me it is therefore a good article. It is well written, even if you don't agree with the sentiments.
I guess every city/country has examples of double standards, and with expats pretty much everywhere there is always a percentage who act appallingly, but it seems more extreme in Dubai.

of course Dubai isn't just made of dreams
and being so close to india, of course people from poorer backgrounds are going to be there.
But Dubai is what you make of it. I've been three times in the last 6 or 7 months and always loved it.
So many things are cheap, sea kayaking, desert safaris etc.
It's bold to say how the westerners are ruining a city, whereby without them they wouldn't have anything. Try doing business over there. Call an indian company to buy something so simple as a router, and see 10 indian guys turn up trying to sell you everything under the sun.
The westerners do well out in dubai because they have good business sense. They work well, work hard and do a professional job. I've tried doing business with the indians and arabs, and they won't even consider any business unless you offer a bribe. They are corrupt as you like!
All this about disprecting our women etc blah blah. Tell that to the rulers who have guest houses for all their mistresses.
All in all, people will always find something to moan about, but if you make an effort Dubai is absolutely amazing and one hell of an experience.

another racist article
*edit. not racist. misguided.
You'll find it's more a case of Police more likely to stop people dressed up as crinimals and gangstas and police are more likely to hassel people who give police attitude (like spitting, swearing etc). Unfortunetly a large amount of the black population dress up as ganstas and give police shit. This makes em more likely to get pulled over.
My mate and I were once pulled over by police cos we were hanging around a bus stop and definetly not waiting for a bus. My mate was all hoodied up and I wasn't. I offered up ID, my friend didn't. I was carrying drugs, my friend wasn't. My friend was searched and I wasn't.
Clothes and attitude decide wether you get pulled over, not skin colour.

Of course being black is going to be an issue
People are naturally racist. And it isn't just about skin colour. Cultural factors come into play. Racial groupings in the UK tend to co-incide to some degree with ethnic (ie cultural) groupings. I suspect that the blacks being 'targeted' differ from the mainstream population in several aspects. It could even be that demographically, they are younger and more male (both good indicators for contact with the criminal justice system).
It takes a hell of a lot of conscience effort not to be prejudiced.
Eye-witnesses to crime regularly report the perpetrator as being darker than they actually are.
And it's not just race and crime.
Fat people are judged to be more stupid, and lazy
People who speak with less prestigious dialects are judged to be less articulate and less bright.
People who are taller are seen as brighter, harder working, better leaders.
We do judge books by the cover, and we get it wrong. This is just another example.
