Well if its some cop thinking that all balcks are criminals its wrong and not really racial profiling but rather racism. where as if its arabs being checked in airports tha i think its fine. before you yell at me for hating arabs, consider this. in the 60s when the government was looking for members of the KKK, they did not search blacks, Jews and Catholics simply because they could not possibly members of the KKK. so when the government is looking for members of Islamic terrorist groups (the only real threat to planes at this point in time), why would they bother checking non-arabs when they cant be in such groups? the government isnt targeting arabs, they're simply not targeting anybody else because there's no point to it. this is no way caling all arabs terrorists. its just being sensible.

I don't think it's alright, because as I've heard there have been terrorists found that weren't islamic...so if they spend all their time checking out arabs, some guy of another race could walk right past and end up killing people.

There's only been one terrorist attack in the US commited by a white american in history

I say no to the Islamic terrorist groups because their numbers are so small in the US.

Well when you're in the airport and they check your bags for bombs, they are essentially looking for Islamic extremists since they're the only ones who wanna blow up american planes at the momment.
