PROFILING IS NOT ALL BAD!

                                                             
     According to the news media and even the President of the United States--we are supposed to believe that ALL profiling, is improper.-----WRONG!---. The heart of all legitimate Neighborhood Watch programs ,is watching for the suspicious activities and actions of individuals and groups. 
  A quick check of the top link of the list on the right,will demonstrate a documented fact. On the Orange County Sheriff;s ''call for service'' site ,you will normally see, one or more OCSO  dispatches for a ''SUSPICIOUS PERSON''. The ONLY WAY that dispatch came about was by someone  doing a profile on somebody.---after the dispatch,  sheriff deputies make the decisions.
 For example---- Fairways Watch, has many times ,stopped and politely greeted a ''walk in'' ,or a'' bike rider'' and inquired as to their status in the Fairways. Sometimes it could be a door to door solicitor.---Fairways Watch, carries no weapons,and we immediately identify ourselves as working with the Neighbor Hood Watch program.In most cases there is no further action required.----BUT---several times 911 was called for a suspicious person, and the proper action was taken by OCSO.--- That is the way it works.
  A quick check of the wording on our Neighborhood Watch sign at the gate, advises all persons ''ALL SUSPICIOUS PERSONS WILL BE REPORTED TO THE SHERIFF;S OFFICE''---We can not make it much simpler than that.
  To all good law abiding residents,who truly care about our community,---KEEP ON PROFILING, RESPONSIBLY, and call 911 if you have reason for concern.

I thought this site was suppose to be non political. But since you started it. I would agree.

Had the POTUS - not commented on the Zimmerman case, things wouldn't be as bad as they are. As far as I'm concerned he's created this whole racial profiling agenda to distract attention from his Benghazi and IRS mess......

Profiling is unfortunately 99% right on. I will continue to report suspicious and suspiciously dressed people wandering around here at dusk/dark.

I wouldn't consider Bill's Post a political item. I think you're reading too much into it. Bill is apparently attempting to express another point of view into what is acceptable profiling. POTUS has his view and Bill has the correct view. Nothing political about that.

I believe whole heartedly in profiling!! How else can we catch the criminals? If I saw someone looking like Obama walking in the Fairways...day or night...I would deem him highly suspicious and call the proper authorities!!
