Sorry, I really don't mean to be picky, but unless you search someone, how do you know they're in possession of drugs (or a bomb etc etc etc...)?

or are about to commit a crime, religion and skin colour are indicative of neither. Unless you are stating they are, in which case you are making a sweeping generalisation on the basis of religion and/or skin colour. I believe that there is a word for that kind of prejudice............

And how do you determine that someone is 'about to commit a crime'?
I personally believe that with the specific case of looney tunes that originate from the middle east wanting to blow innocents up, and the apparent lack of any confessionals fro these people, skin colour and religion are about the only two things we have to go on....
I can understand and agree to a certain point with the Islamaphobia theory, but if one of my nearest and dearest got injured or killed because one of these dillusional extremists didn't look shifty enough to get stopped and searched, I'd be baying for blood from the b*stards that dfid it, AND from our security services that weren't thorough enough....
