FBI Considering Rules That Would Open the Door to Ethnic and Racial Profiling

fbi_seal.jpgPacifica’s Democracy Now! reports that the AP is reporting (how’s that for third hand info) that the Justice Department is considering letting the FBI investigate Americans without any evidence of wrongdoing, relying instead on racial or ethnic profiling. Currently, FBI agents need specific reasons, such as evidence or allegations that a law probably has been violated, to investigate US citizens and legal residents.

Hmmm sounds like what they are doing already, now they would just be able to do it legally.
