One night I was riding my bike home from work when a local police officer stopped me. Backup arrived immediately. As a white male, 18-25, I matched the description of a burglar who had been reported in the area. In the town I live in, white males are a minority (a large one, but still...). I was stopped because my race, age, and gender matched the description. It never occurred to me that this could be racial profiling, but rather a reasonable suspicion that I could be the individual described.
