    I don´t want to change anything.
    I just do not understand it when people express the American people do not believe in profiling, The great majority do. Further when people state that racisim does not exist with respect to appearance, I don´t understand that either.

    It's about resources, not racism. They can only stop x number of people. Do you want them to waste their time searching little old ladies. I think you'll find it has less to do with race and more to do with appearance of economic status. For example a brown man with a clean shave in a suit holding a brief case vs a white man that looks like the uni-bomber, the white dude will get searched.

    profiling is only racist if race is the only reason for the profile
