More than 30 federal Transportation Security Administration officers in the behavior detection program at Logan International Airport in Boston have reported that the operation has become a magnet for racial profiling instead of terrorist detection, according to a report from the New York Times.

In interviews and internal complaints, these officers asserted that passengers who fit certain profiles – Hispanics traveling to Miami or blacks wearing baseball caps backward – are more likely to be stopped, searched and questioned for “suspicious” behavior, possibly to meet managers’ demands for high numbers of stops, the article says.
