    Silly me -- I thought this thread was about TSA screening and airport security. What group of people have been responsible for a large number of hijackings in the past 40 years. The data must be "islamophobic". Btw, I can't find a single instance of a hijacking by a 95 yr old woman or toddler (regardless of --gasp-- "ethnicity")
    Do you think only Muslims should be screened at the airport?

    yes or no

    If the FBI is cracking down on the mafia, they probably don't focus their attention on 95 yr old women of non-Italian ancestry. The TSA forcing that old woman to remove her diaper was stupid. They behaved stupidly.

    NRA Shrugs Off Private Sale Gun Show Loophole Dangers After Al Qaeda Urged Its Supporters To Exploit It

    Days after an al Qaeda spokesman in a YouTube video urged the terrorist group’s sympathizers in the U.S. to exploit the private sale gun show loophole in order to purchase weapons to use against Americans, ThinkProgress repeatedly asked the National Rifle Association for comment. However, the powerful gun lobby wouldn’t talk.

    But on Friday, the NRA broke its silence. In a post on the website of the group’s legislative action arm, the NRA downplayed the video, saying that closing the loophole will have no effect on “committed terrorists.”

    ======

    NRA and 2nd Amendment bull is all about the Guns & Ammo Bu$ine$$, not about politics, freedom, and apple pie.

    They did not even ask her to remove it.... The daughter already admitted that she removed it of her own volition.

    I'm just saying that a guy named Ibin Farteen with a student visa from Yemen might warrant more scrutiny than, say, Sally Jones from Deluth.

    I understand the point you are trying to make, I am just informing you so that you don't lie to get your point across.

    What if Ibin Farteen was a Muslim born and raised in Deluth?

    Why don't you research the last 40 years of terrorism and figure out who matches the profile.
    In America?

    I also think it's hilarious that the quoted/highlighted profile is "militant-Islamic"...

    How do you know who is a "militant-Islamic"? You ask them?

    Or you could just assume all Islamic-y people are militant. That would make the job easier, don't you think? (Sorry Sikh, I don't know what that means, but I am sure that you are a muslim)

    Given that military officers brainwash people for a living, I wouldn't really take a general's word for it when he tries to fear monger.
    You don't have to take a general's word for it. It's out-in-the-open. Look at all the terrorist attacks on Israel over the last 10 years alone. It's calmed lately, though there was one a few months ago.

    You don't think trying to equate Israel's attack rate against the US is somewhat misguided, considering the geographical and geopolitical (not to mention religious) differences between the two countries?

    Why not use more dogs at airports?

    Dogs can't be accused of racial/ethnic profiling and won't unnecessarily harass the very young and very old.


    Can't we all agree that the random screening/groping of people needs to stop?


    Besides, has the TSA ever actually thwarted a hijacking or terrorist attack? Seems to me, that groups of average citizens have prevented more attacks than this dumbass agency.


    EDIT> The suggestion for using dogs is in no way meant to offend cats or cat owners. Apologies to Manny.

    No problem here with more dogs at airports. I'll leave the beef jerky at home.

    If you exclude war zones, most terrorist attacks on the US are committed by people who are neither foreign nor Islamic.

    The ratio is something like 2/3.

    You didn't post anything backing up your silly hypothesis in the Fort Hood thread. Have you done any research since? What you got?

    What if you exclude all places that have nothing to do with airports or airplanes?

    Thread is about TSA.
