Racial profiling. I'll forever stand in support of the sensible practice.Don't fall into the liberal trap. It's not "racial profiling," it's "criminal profiling." The criminal profile may be based on any number of factors (and, in fact, is usually based on several or more), of which a person's race is just one factor to consider.

I've not fallen for their screed. I think the federal air marshals initially took notice of those guys because they were Middle Eastern (aren't all terrorist these days) and I applaud them for that. Had the marshals been liberals they might well have passed them over to shake down some 80 year old Irish guy just to be "fair".

Amen!
Whether it's called "racial profiling, criminal profiling, or behavioral profiling" it's a valuable tool in fighting crime...that's why so many leftist loonies are so much against it.....it works!

" It's "criminal profiling." Excellent distinction and one which everyone should keep in mind when the inevitable critics of sensible security procedures emerge with their shouts of "Racism".
