Profiling would also advertise a blind spot for anybody who doesn't look Arabic or Muslim (or whatever standard they'd use). The terrorists just have to recruit a white guy, or get an Arab to dye his skin(*) to pass as black, and the NYPD will wave him through. (*) This sounds trollish as I read it back to myself, but it's plausible. John Griffin, a white civil rights activist, lived as a black man among blacks for a while.
