<p>how can ANYONE argue in favour of racial profiling? it's just a mildly nicer word for RACISM and BIGOTRY. "hey, look! this guy's black! he MUST be a criminal!" ever heard of the benefit of the doubt? of innocent until proven guilty? rich white people are just as capable of murder as the next person, though you're less likely to hear about it since networks are owned by their friends. and you wonder why people move to the united states, hoping for a new, better life, and are hugely disappointed at what they find-corruption, racism and intolerance. it disgusts me that people who are on a forum dedicated to institutions of HIGHER LEARNING are supporting racism, prejudice and discrimination, and are heaping these things on largely undeserving people. please understand that race and personal actions do NOT necessarily dictate one another.</p>
