Let me add to this....
I probably wouldn't have used the term "racial profiling". It's a matter of profiling based on certain criteria:
age
ethnicity
religion
native country
etc.
There is NO possible way that they can search everyone at the airport. So it is ridiculous to perform a completely random search. We don't have the resources to search everyone. So given the fact that most terrorism relating to airplanes has been committed my muslim males between the ages of 18 and 35, why should we waste time searching an old black lady when we could be doing more random searches of people who are actually comitting the crimes.

What does profiling at an airport have to do with who did a school shooting - ALL of your examples are internal matters - not international, like someone trying to fly out of New York with a bomb in their shoe.
