<p>Statistics aside, it would seem that racial profiling only makes the situation worse - say you're from race X. Race X is always suspected of doing whatever crime, and therefore, people of races other than race X are hostile towards race X. This makes it harder for members of race X to be decent, normal people, what with everyone accusing them of crime. Out of anger, they go out and commit crimes. This is seen as a justification that race X is bad, and the cycle goes on.</p>
