I'm reluctant to put words in your mouth... BUT... I think you're confusing racial profiling with racism. Cops racially profile those that commit the majority of crime (black), and you're confusing that with RACISM. I've met black police officers that are racist against black people because of their statistical over-representation in the committal of crimes. Racism and racial profiling are similar, but with distinct differences.
