You are not racially profiling anyone if you are acting on subconscious biases. You've now turned this into a semantic argument which means further discussion is unnecessary. But please have the last word if you feel the need.
Yes, you are racially profiling when you stop and/or search a person based on their race. The fact that your racism is subconscious makes no difference. THAT IS WHY POLICE ARE BEING TRAINED TO STOP IT.
And this is not just based on semantics. I asked you point blank if law enforcement treat people differently based on their race, and you said "No". Now you are trying to admit that they do, but argue that it does not matter because the racism is subconscious.
Plus I have given multiple examples of racial profiling that were based on guidelines or orders issued by superiors or agencies.
The one thing you are correct about is that there is no use in you attempting to argue against these point any longer.
