________ profiling is known as any police action initiated on the basis of the race, ethnicity, or national origin of a suspect
rather than on the behavior of that individual or on information that identifies the individual as being, or having been, engaged in criminal activity.
Explanation: Racial Profiling is the act of suspecting a certain race based on assumptions and the jungle view that certain crimes belongs to a particular race or are often perpetuated by a particular race. This is a direct opposite of psychological profiling where crime scene evidence and behavioural pattern are used to get to a criminal.
For example; Racial Profiling is when you make a conclusion that all Arabs are terrorist or all Nigerians are internet scammers. All these are baseless and only supported by assumptions.
This type of profiling only brings disunity as well as distrusted among the citizens and the security forces in such areas.
