Does Racial Profiling Lead to Police Brutality?

 
Okay people, we need to bring up this issue of racial profiling of minorities in the city streets.  Being a minority in the United States is rough, I know because I am one.  I will admit when ever I would get in trouble for something, society always judged me first because of my ethnicity and race.  It really annoyed me, even when I was completely innocent of a situation, I was always singled out first for questioning.  
I can only imagine how victims of serious racial profiling must feel and how it changes their outlook on life.  Luckily for me, I’ve never been harassed to the point that I’m in jail and get blamed for something that I was completely innocent for.  However, hundreds of minorities go through stereotyping on a 24/7 basis and can also be subjected to police brutality when it is completely unnecessary.  I’m sick and tired of seeing good, upstanding minorities being judged and profiled as criminals based on clothes, where they live, race, etc.  In my opinion, judging a criminal based on those features is complete and utter bulls**t.  I can name lots of people that look like they might be criminals based on how they look and dress, but they are also some of the nicest people that I have ever met that would never hurt a fly.  Most of the time, the most notorious criminals and killers look like normal, middle-class people.  
In my opinion, the police system in this country is corrupt to a point that officers only go after threatening-looking minorities.  They only focus on locking up thugs that just look threatening and not fully focusing on real criminal cases such as rapes, child molesters, serial killers, etc.  Even though I know the police try and catch the bad guys in the world, I feel that they focus primarily on locking up any black or spanish person up in prison.  I guess it’s just a minority thing to think this way, but that is how I feel on this issue.  In the end I feel that racial profiling will inevitablely lead to police brutality no matter how small the offense.
