I once went to Compton with a friend. We walked to the corner store and guess what? The owner eyeballed me walking around the store.

Wise man! ..... Just kidding, Praxeas! I do have a question tho! What makes profiling all that bad. It would seem to me that in some cases it's just wise to profile!

There is a difference between racial and criminal profiling. I don't believe you will find anyone in law enforcement who will tell you that race and ethnicity is not going to be included in the data they collect.

Racial profiling is based solely on "hate" for "color". It appears from GZ's comments that he evaluated TM based on criminal profiling.
