Newsmax.com reports that British authorities are considering the use of racial profiling. It seems to have gained support in the wake of the recent terrorist attacks. It of course has stirred up
controversy in England as well. I heard a talk show host explaining racial profiling with the following analogy: finding a terrorist is like finding a needle in a haystack. When you look for a needle in a haystack do you look through all the hay? No! You get a magnet and get that needle. Racial profiling is that magnet.
