      @SamHarrisOrg But as I understand, you propose profiling differently per group. That's despite evidence that this method is ineffective Yes?

      @SamHarrisOrg @davidBlandry @andreas_wahl No. Not if you use the same evidence based criteria on everyone. Otherwise, it's 'profiling.'

      @Sillyputty78 @davidBlandry @andreas_wahl What criteria would apply equally to everyone? Breathing? Evidence of jihadism is the point.

          @SamHarrisOrg @Sillyputty78 @andreas_wahl 'conceivably Muslim' is not evidence of Jihadism. What process do U want 'profiled' to go through?
