unless I'm missing something, police profiling based on age = no more excusable than police profiling based on race (http://www.nj.com/morris/index.ssf/2014/05/mendham_twp_cops_lawsuit_says_he_was_punished_for_not_profiling_younger_drivers.html …)
@harrysiegel put another way, an unalterable characteristic cannot alone be grounds for suspicion of criminal activity

@mtracey Strictly as side note, there's something funny (or at least arch) about calling age "an unalterable characteristic" -
@harrysiegel Yeah it's a funny way of putting it. By which I just mean: people cannot alter their race or their age.
