“Every time one of these [Racial Profiling cases] comes up you have liberals saying, “Well OK, it wasn’t true in this case but we still have an epidemic of Racial Profiling.” Well they got to start having their cases not turn out to be hoaxes before they can say that.” ~ Ann Coulter

Racial Profiling Hoax from the wife of a police officer

The following is from the American Thinker…

The results of these surveys are almost entirely consistent with the results of arrest records.

Police officers make use of what criminological surveys tell us about who is and who isn’t likely to commit certain crimes so that violent criminals don’t go un-apprehended.

I think it’s safe to say that a common prejudice is that men are more likely to commit violent crimes than women, and younger people more so than older. I don’t hear you objecting to sexual discrimination or ageism for that matter. Criminal profiling shows that serial killers are almost always white. Police investigations of serial murders almost always target white males because of this statistic. I haven’t once heard you make mention of this in your “racial profiling” speeches.
