Unfortunately, that's not as easy to see as a turban or brown skin. I for one do not want to live in a country where every Arab or Muslim is searched before he or she gets on a plane (unless of course everyone is being searched.)

Near as I can remember DB Cooper didnt ram the plane into anything and the passengers survived....The OKC incident was pulled off by a whacked out idiot funded by ..who? can you say it? Same group as mentioned above! [img]smile.gif[/img] You have heard they found a paper trail leading back to the middle east on OKC right? I know the mainstream media didn't have much to say about it..just a small blurb for a couple of days. And I for one who has to fly occasionally WANT to live in a country where people who fit the profile ARE searched before getting on a plane. Face it...we are not being attacked by little old ladies or bob sled teams from Sweden. [img]smile.gif[/img] guess we just want different things [img]smile.gif[/img] I would rather have a profiled person be annoyed for a few minutes than have to kill him before he crashes the flight Im on.
Oops. I forgot to put a smiley after my redshirt comment [img]smile.gif[/img] lol at least you got the humor [img]smile.gif[/img]
