Donald Trump once again delivered a controversial comment after the Orlando mass shooting, saying that profiling Muslims already in the United States is common sense.

Trump appeared on the CBS show Face the Nation and was interviewed by host John Dickerson. The GOP presumptive nominee said that he thinks profiling is something the U.S. is going to have to start thinking about as a country.

He added, "And other countries do it; you look at Israel and you look at others and they do it and they do it successfully. You know, I hate the concept of profiling. But we have to start using common sense, and we have to use, you know, we have to use our heads ... we really have to look at profiling. We have to look at it seriously."

Trump suggested that ethnic profiling could be useful to keep people safe.

This is not the first time that Trump talked about the matter. He raised the idea of banning Muslims from entering the country after the multiple attacks in Paris that killed dozens.  He also expressed limited profiling of Muslims if neighbors and relatives seemed suspicious after the San Bernardino, California mass shooting by a radicalized husband and wife, Syed Rizwan Farook and Tashfeen Malik.

As for the latest mass shooting, Trump blamed American Muslims for protecting terrorists. He then proposed temporary banning of any immigrants from countries that have a history with terrorism.

The latest comments of Trump have further distanced him from the Republican party. Many have been begging the presumptive presidential nominee to tone down on his rhetoric, but he has responded by saying that those who do not agree with him should stay silent.

Aside from suggesting profiling, Trump said the government should also investigate mosques in the U.S. He cited the New York Police Department's Demographics Unit, which assembled databases about Muslims, their addresses, where they shopped, worked, prayed, and much more.

However, the city has had to settle two lawsuits stemming from the spying.
