Yeah, profiling for drug dealers based on behaviors and risk factors has sure helped stop all those drugs coming into the US.
Effective profiling is very difficult and expensive, particularly in an arena where the acceptable margin of error is basically zero.
Have you ever seen the criteria used to determine if someone was a drug dealer? Virtually anyone could score a hit on those.
