Nope, I really don't see a pattern here to justify profiling, do you?
So, to ensure we Americans never offend anyone, particularly fanatics intent on killing us, airport security screeners will no longer be allowed to profile certain people. They must conduct random searches of 80-year-old women, little kids, airline pilots with proper identification, secret agents who are members of the President's security detail, 85-year old Congressmen with metal hips, and Medal of Honor winning former Governors, and leave Muslim Males between the ages 17 & 40 alone because of profiling.
Let's send this to as many people as we can so that the Gloria Aldreds and other dunder-headed attorneys along with Federal Justices that want to thwart common sense, feel doubly ashamed of themselves if they have any such sense.
As the writer of the award winning story "Forrest Gump" so aptly put it,
"Stupid is as stupid does."

I'm all for profiling. Racial or otherwise. If it was up to me every one in this country that fit that profile would be thrown out on their ass today. I know we'd lose some good convenience store operators and I'd miss the smell of curry whenever I drove by a cheezy motel but, I'd end terroism in this country in one brushstroke. Does that sound racist?

My wife has family members who want to come to US, but they fit the darn profile although they are not Muslims, they are between 17 and 40, it's sad be cause i knoiw these guys personally, having been to Lebanon myself and while i know they wouldn't hurt a fly, they just fit the profile, i can only imagine what they'd have to endure if they did get to make it over here.

Sorry about my post M&M. You sound alright. I haven't had much exposure to middle easterners except via the very negative and violent extremists. It has made me very wary and exceedingly prejudiced.

Real muslims or just middle easterners? Muslims, no. Not likely.

Any religion that believes that white people are evil and need to die is pretty cool. So now no one should get pissed at me because I say, "I HATE F U C K I N` MUSLIMS". I really do. Or should I say that there is no place in this society for it.
And I`m not just blowin` steam. I wish there was a legal way to kill these stupid assholes. No matter what race. This religion teaches hate and violence. And its really not a religion.
Oh, and its ok to tell these males to take a God damn bath!
Its also ok for me to say this shit because I am a self proclaimed racist. I go out of my way to look out for whitey.:cool:
