Do you think it is right for an officer to stop a white man in a black nieghborhood or visa versa a black man in a white neighborhood?

Wrong is wrong... I feel as an African-American female that although Racial Profiling does occur, sometimes people just feel as if the cops are trying to stop them because they are black or another minority. Although sometimes there will be encounters where it is Racial Profiling, other times it is just the cops doing their jobs.

No. But I ALSO don't think it's "right" to single out cops for hassling if that's what they do for a living. You want to stop "racial profiling"- go out with all of your friends & VOTE for whoever's running against it. It's the Politicians that need the "profiling"- not the police. And YOU CAN do something about THAT.

Racial profiling is racist. People commit lots of crimes against their own race, racial profiling is pointless. A white man being stopped in a black neighborhood, yeah, that'll happen.
