My solution, as a genius, is irrelevant. I'm trying to get the 'pulse' of the common person, thereby asking you.

I blamed the whole world. Those dirty politicians and far right/far left shit bastards. No one wants to work. Oh I also blame all the fucktards still fighting over millennium long conflicts.

True.

Going back to your initial point. Cops are out there dealing with crazies, convicts, druggies, etc. They have a better intuition on what suspicious behavior is. What may seem normal to us, can come off as suspicious to cops. I am not saying it happens intentionally, humans are flawed, it is to be expected. It could be that there was a call about a dark skinned person doing some suspicious behavior and the cop uses his judgment and sees a potential suspect.

To be real, I live near the San Jose main jail. When I go by and see people getting loaded into buses for the Sheriff's Work Alternative Program (basically doing labor as a replacement for jail time), the majority, over 90 percent are black or latinos.

I may get flamed for it, but it's the damn truth and you know it. It's a shame and I look forward to the day that my colored brothers and sisters can use their creativity and talents for betterment of society.

It was sarcasm, there's no way to predict the future... this isn't minority report. I'm against racial profiling. Besides, I think racial profiling could cause other individual/situations to be overlooked that need attention. Unfortunately I am not Caucasian, so I've had the chance of experiencing the "hype."

Sorry for misreading your statement. ...sarcasm doesn't always translate over the internet.

Right, humans are flawed and everyone has different experience, etc. It is also true that racially profiling also happens intentionally by some people, including cops.

No worries, that's understandable. It may be the consequence of the times. I would think that most people would not find racial profiling as a solution for any problem, but then again, Trump is our president.

as soon as latinos stop being lumped in with blacks and other minorities you'll see a betterment.
it's no coincidence the majority of all the successful mexicans you see are the ones that didn't grow up in urban ass areas like south chicago, detroit, parts of east L.A, etc...
we're better off without all that useless ghetto culture shit. it's a literal fucking plague on the youth.
hell even compton's an actual livable place now that it's majority mexicans.

You're right. I stand corrected. I meant to say 'unintentionally'

I am a believer that one needs to have some understanding on when it is appropriate to profile. It's being street smart and vigilant, something that can potentially save your life.
