Speaking of profiling, I found an old link to Overlawyered.com archives -- Nov. 2001 pt. II, which leads with "Profiling perfectly OK after all," and goes on to list the various contradictory messages the Feds were (and still are) sending out about profiling. Fascinating set of links, too.

Then there's the ad for "Men in Black II," wherein Will Smith's new Mercedes motors up to the curb, a white man at the wheel. He clicks a button on his remote, and the "man" is sucked into the streering wheel. Tommy Lee Jones asks about the feature, something along the lines of "is that standard equipment?" Smith says it is, noting that it used to be a black man but it got pulled over too often.
