Legal Question in Criminal Law in North Carolina

I haven't heard of it but I doubt it is a law more likely a simple administrative policy. It sounds like nothing more than keeping a list of the 'usual suspects' which is something police departments have done all over the world for a very long time. The fact that this particular database or list concentrates on black people of a certain religious view or expression is not in and of itself racist. Many many people today have a completely incorrect understanding of the definition of the word racist. The word racist means:1) a person who believes that a particular race is superior to another 2) having or showing the belief that a particular race is superior to another. Making a database or list of black people in no way has anything to do with one race being superior to another and therefore is not racist much like 95% or more of things being touted as 'racists' today which are also not actually racists. So now you may be thinking, why black people of a certain religious view or expression? Well that would likely be because of a 'stereotype'. A stereotype is a widely held but oversimplified idea of a particular type of person or thing. While there are some false stereotypes, generally you don't often get stereotypes about people because a large percentage of the group doesn't do what the stereotype is. Therefore if a large percentage of people getting convicted of a certain crime are black people of a certain religions view or expression then it stands to reason that police would want to look at that group. Does it mean that all people in that group are criminals - no - it just means that there is possibly a greater likely hood. None of which is racist or improper.
