Oh my gosh, where do you get this stuff? "We" is who? How widespread is
this practice by thousand births? Where are the DNA profiles kept? Who's
analyzing them?

Absolutely correct. A statement you'll have to take on faith: DNA has
zero to do with behavior.

Yes, it is long-term study of behavior. But the FBI calls it profiling.
In fact, my uncle-in-law was one of the first guys at the FBI to come up
with this stuff (Kenneth Baker, in case anyone cares).

Many of you are wrong. The media just fans the flames which are started
by Jesse Jackson, Kwiesi Mfume, and the other bigots who try to rally
the black population. I think MLK had a good idea, and that time period
produced more lasting changes for the blacks than the end of the civil
war. But this new crop of black bigots only assist in further enslaving
blacks.
