Good column. Some profiling is nothing more than a description of the suspect. Sometimes it gets offensive, as in the taxicab issue. But understanding the real problem and placing anger and fixes where they belong is the only way out. I’m not saying cab drivers should not pick up black customers in areas where black crime is high. I think they should. But it does not help to label them racist when they are just trying to live to see tomorrow. They didn’t cause the problem.
Well said.
