TSA are you listening?

TSA are you listening? Police conducting counter-terrorism searches at airports should abandon efforts to achieve a 'racial balance' in the numbers they frisk says a British  official report. 
The British Government's counter-terrorism chief, David Anderson, says that it is the 'antithesis of intelligence-led policing' for officers to ensure that the numbers of each ethnic group searched are proportionate to the general  population. In other words, profiling is effective: pretending otherwise does  nothing but endanger thousands of innocents.
