I agree the government needs a reason to search your "stuff" and I pointed out that they are doing it now by gathering your phone records and who knows what else. That's why Snowden is in Russia. If a cop sees an individual that "looks like a bad guy that is probably carrying" is that not profiling? They probably don't frisk 80 year old ladies on crutches. And what about all those border patrol stops near the border with Mexico. I am sure that profiling discretion is used by those agents when they stop you. I am not saying that I like it but we all profile every day. I grew up in a bad neighborhood in NYC as a kid and I can tell you that I profiled people all the time. When I saw a bad guy coming down the street I immediately crossed the street or turned and went the other way. You get that tingly feeling when you know someone doesn't look right.

I happen to believe that good cops know which street thugs in NYC are carrying or not. Sure it is profiling and you go after the groups that are most likely to be criminals.
