Wonder if TWA 800 was a test run of the "explosive liquid" approach to blowing up an airliner.

Amazing. The count is still 83% in favor of profiling. Let's see if the numbers hold.

Should airport security place more emphasis on profiling passengers? Hmmmhhh, should you hold your pistol pointing away from you with your index finger on the trigger..., or..., pointed towards you with your thumb on the trigger when you fire it?

They should ban Middle Eastern muslims, not my cup of Starbucks. They are much more dangerous than my coffee or even my laptop.

Well, with that many people voting no, we sure can't do this and run the risk of offending them.

The government profiles ALL the time. Look and your drivers license - Gender, Race, Height, Weight, etc. Why put that on there if you're not profiling.

That picture is too funny!

Hmm, all I found was "Who's your favorite James Bond actor?". Have CNN pulled it?
To: texas_mrs
Should airport security place more emphasis on profiling passengers? More emphasis than what? This is such a stupid argument, IMHO. Muslim-looking men (and women) are far from invisible in an airport. But they could be. So what's your recommendation? Should we advertise exactly what TSA is looking for? Wave everyone through who doesn't fit the ~look~?
Should people look at profile? Absolutely. Why do you assume they ~don't~? Because there's no diagram on the wall, or because everyone has to go through the checks?
