Depends on what you mean by profiling. Profiling based on behaviors and risk factors surely could be "valuable" (to the extent that one thinks there is value in further enhancing airport security).
As to profiling based on race/identity, (1) is incredibly easy to evade, and (2) is no doubt in place informally (ask anyone with an Arab name, although anecdotally I have heard that it is less apparent now than in the not so distant past).
