Of course I would, but that is not profiling. That is simply seeing that one is damaged and one is not. If there is one guy pointing a gun at me and another guy just standing there looking at me it is not profiling to assume that the guy pointing the gun at me is more likely to rob me.
Profiling would be if I looked at the apples and assumed that the ones with a slightly longer stem were better simply because they had a longer stem or that the ones on the bottom of the bin were better simply because they were on the bottom of the bin.
