I've only ever thought about it being on airplanes. If I see a suspicious Muslim-looking person by himself or only with other men i get nervous. Thats the truth of it.
I mean I dont stereotype people generally and if any person of any race/color/creed came up to me to chat or to ask a question i'd gladly chat back nicely and have a good judgement of that person.
I agree, allow profiling on aircrafts to an extent. a 15 year old traveling with his parents and 2 brothers is not going to blow up a plane or carry on a weapon, (me 4 years ago, searched and taken off shoes...etc.) While an arab-muslim man walked right through with nothing checked on him. I mean we have to use a little common sense in this whole thing.
Just my opinion
