Surprisingly, Turnbull initiates Ethnic Profiling.

This is a sharp turn to the Right in security policy.

Screams of "Racism!" will now descend upon the Turnbull government as never before.

It will be very shrill, miketrees, and I don't doubt that right now, even as we speak, Malcolm is receiving a torrent of abuse from such quarters as the ABC, the SBS, and the offices of the Race Discrimination Commissioner.

During Britain's infamous era of the Soccer Hooligans who would invade Europe like a tribe of barbarians on missions of violence, would it have been 'racially discriminatory' and 'unfair' to have stopped them at the points of entry for the purpose of culling the herd by refusing them to go any further than the custom turnstiles?

The blacks, Chinese, Pakis, and Indians were not into rioting across Europe like a toxic plague of white-skinned thugs, and so it would have been reasonable for the Border Security guys to racially profile the Brits as being The Usual Suspects.

To his great credit, Turnbull and Dutton have finally worked out that this effective practice can also work in the reverse. They've finally summoned up the balls to grasp this 'controversial' nettle that's going to set ripples of rebellion coursing throughout certain of our 'ethnic communities'. 

Right at this moment professional lobbyists for the Ethnic Councils must be going bat-sh!t down there in Canberra.

If you look like a shifty-eyed AYrab wearing a suspiciously bulky jacket on one of our hotter days, then it probably makes sense that eyes will be drawn to you rather than the shrunken little old lady being wheeled across the airport lounge by her white grandson.

If they are doing no wrong, they have nothing to fear.

I would rather the police had the power to ask me for ID, than to have to search my corpse for ID

Profiling is all a matter of commonsense triumphing over ethnic paranoia.

This attitude is the problem. Giving up privacy and freedom for security.
