One of my daughters was (incorrectly) profiled once, and she was pleased to see people getting involved. It’s sad that this spoiled brat can’t see the point of stepping in to help others.

Compounding subjective interpretations on top of each other is a dumb way to go about making such evaluations. She was inconvenienced for no good reason.
