It's a difficult dilemma. No wants a gang of lowlifes doing a takeover burglary and their house and brutalizing the household while they're at it. That's why communities hire cops. Some police work does appear to fly in the face of the constitution to some extent.
Cops hate showing up after the fact. Which is the way it happens most of the time. And then people whine about how they're all hanging at the donut shop so no wonder. Fact is, being at the scene of a crime as it's unfolding is a rare occurrence, for cops or civilians, apart from the victims anyway.
The profiling thing is not good, it's usually not warranted but there are times when it points to abnormalities that would be best nipped in the bud. I suspect you'll have plenty of opportunities to rail against this sort of thing because cops are not going to stop trying to pre-empt crime.
