Acting on demographics based on statistics is called discrimination and it is a crime.
Everyone - also members of a demographic that is statistically over-represented in criminal behavior - is innocent, unless proven otherwise, on an individual basis.
To put that into perspective: young men are much more likely to commit crimes than any other group. Yet we all agree that we shouldn't discriminate against young men.

This definitely isn't a universal sentiment. > Acting on demographics based on statistics is called discrimination and it is a crime Not if the government does it. E.g. the vast majority of Russians would not be spies, but Ukraine still isn't letting Russians into the country.
