Roe on Racial Profiling

Amen, and hallelujah! At long last a self-described liberal journalist writes a candid column about racial profiling. News flash: racial profiling is not intrinsically bad, and when done correctly, it can actually prevent crime and save lives. The tide is beginning to turn and sanity may soon be restored at our nation's airports. See also the comments of American Airlines CEO Donald Carty who basically called the excess security measures just plain silly. For a recent example, check out the ridiculous episode at San Francisco's airport. I'm all for security. But let's not sacrifice common sense along the way.
