I love it when people play the 'Rascist' card.It;s the in thing nowadays since everybody got all PC. The fact is skin colour and facial features set people apart so really it's the only thing people have to go on when looking for a certain section of society,like it or not it happens whether it is deemed racist or not.If,for example, there was a terrorist alert regarding,lets say,Somali individuals where would you start,blond,blue eyed caucasians flying in from Finland.No you wouldn't so it is deemed rascist that you look for dark skinned,brown eyed people with Afro middle eastern features,usually by those who for some reason have an agenda.It really is common sense.
I myself would rather be called a racist and have our borders protected properly than bow down to the PC brigade and have the UKBA spend time and resources tracking them down once they are in and firmly ensconsed in mainland UK.
