If that is the case.... Then this post surprises me.
I don't know the full story, but my point is that travelling with large amounts of money stashed away, then being vague or unforthcoming about it does fit a specific profile. To the issue of profiling, my point is that I have been affected by it, but am still not completely opposed to it. However, if you are a proponent of profiling at all, it is disengenuous to oppose it when the potential arises that you may fit a profile.
