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 of the President's security detail, 85-year old Congressmen with metal hips, and Medal of Honor winning and former Governor Joe Foss, but leave Muslim Males between the ages 17 and 40 alone because of profiling.

What do you think?
I think I've never seen a longer question on Yahoo! Answers, or a more ingenious one, or one better put. Kudos. Now, I think you're right on about your deduction. It's silly not to be profiling, in every way possible, psychologically and physically. We have been corrupted by the cult of political correctness for too long. Save the country, the heck with sensibilities. The terrorists will just laugh at us for our niceties and slit our throats from behind. Hey, that's not very nice! Good going.
Reply:Yeah, the last thing we want to do is offend Muslim males between the ages of 17 and 40 by suggesting that they might be the most likely candidates for terrorism. That would just be too insensitive now, wouldn't it?


In fact we should go ahead and remove them from the list altogether and just confine our searches to dogs and small amphibians of Islamic persuasion.
Reply:First of all, what does a Muslim look like? Islam is a religion, and does not necessarily have a look.





Chances are you'll say Middle Eastern. Ok, that is a bit of a look. A look that could easily be confused with Hispanic, Indian, even tanned.





So, if you were an American and looked a bit Middle Eastern, would you feel OK about being singled-out, extra searched, delayed on flights and such.





Believe me, when someone actually does come from a Middle Eastern country and is a male in that age range, such people ARE scrutinized for the purposes of visa and such. This is not called profiling though, because it is not random and not going to cause the problem of being confused.





Heck, half of why they did what they did on 9/11 was to stop young Middle Eastern men from being allowed to come to the U.S. and find out how much better it is here!





By your post, it looks like they did the right thing!!
