Donald Trump defends racial profiling in wake of bombs
Of course he does.
"Our local police -- they know who a lot of these people are. They are afraid to do anything about it because they don't want to be accused of profiling," Trump said on Fox News on Monday.
Trump pointed to how Israel used profiling and "done an unbelievable job."
Trump did not say on what attributes he would encourage police to profile possible suspects, but It's illegal for police to subject US persons to disparate treatment based on their race or other protected status.
"They see somebody that's suspicious, they will profile," Trump said.
"Look what's going on: Do we really have a choice? We're trying to be so politically correct in our country, and this is only going to get worse."
Profiling would make sense at airports, in preference to the idiotic security measures forced on us by stupid liberals.
But how is that supposed to relate to "home grown" terrorist attacks?
Is he really hinting at preventive detention, internment of people who might eventually commit a criminal act?
The idea has been floated in Europe by people in the nationalist, anti-EU right.
The skinhead, soccer hooligan right.
People who support Trump and whom he supports.
Do the Israelis do anything like that?
