Except that’s not the country we live in. Roughly 15% of the population has black skin. The vast majority of them are not criminals.

If you lived in the hypothetical would I described, would you “profile” a member of race B?

If you would in that world, but not in ours, then it’s a matter of numbers. How much more likely would a member of race B have to be to commit a crime than a member of race A before you’d “profile” them? And would you expect everybody to draw the line in the same place that you draw it?
