Did I say it was justified? There are many things that are a reality but are not justified. In some cases it is justified (thinking.. FBI psychological profiling of serial killers, which tends to be very accurate) and in some cases it is not (assuming that a husband killed a wife who has disappeared). Profiling occurs in every walk of life and in almost every situation. Life insurance companies do it (raising rates for smokers and people with chronic illnesses), marketing and advertising agencies do it (beer ads during football games, make up ads during Lipstick Jungle), auto companies market certain cars to certain people. If a newborn is found in a highschool bathroom, they don't search the local nursing home for 85 year old men who may have done it. It's not always an infringement on people's rights. Sometimes it is. It can be a way of narrowing down who you're looking for. If you read the rest of my post, you'd see that I cited times that it didn't make sense, so please don't take it out of context.
