afternoon Mr.Teo and judges. Today‚ i would like to talk about why racial profiling should be used by submitting a statistical case to prove that it should not be too quickly dismissed. Allow me to start with a question: “If a witness to a crime gave a policeman a description of a robber‚ the policeman would be doing a good job if he looked for suspects that matched the description. Why does the same not apply to other instances?” Racial profiling is based on reasoned assumptions that it is a certain
