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".

You're missing the point. The Left gains power and influence by using carefully crafted language to advance their agenda among those who are easily influenced. Thus, every time you and others use their term "racial profiling," instead of the correct (and non-inflammatory) term, "criminal profiling," you are spreading their propaganda.
In a war of ideology, words are the weapons.
