Moral clarity, from of all places, Waterbury, CT (where the city government gets indicted annually on fraud and racketeering charges!)

Funny how a few pounds of explosives, strategically placed, can change the perspective of an entire city famous for its thumb-sucking multiculturalism.

It's easy to have dangerous morals in a safe haven.

A really GOOD posting!

Profiling makes good sense anywhere.

Bomb sniffing dogs should be used at all subway entrances. Dogs don't have to be PC.

Wrong. Searching doesn't make sense on public transportation, any more than it makes sense in open markets. If you're really that concerned about dying in a terrorist attack on the subway (even though the chances of it are less than the chances of dying in an auto accident), then don't go on the subway.

The "profiling" needs to be in determining who's allowed in the country in the first place.

Meanwhile, a test in 2003 by the Transportation Security Administration found that screeners found concealed knives only 70 percent of the time and missed one in four guns.

AH...another effective government program. Glad that incompetent screeners are federal employees and not only highly paid (over paid) but also very dificult to fire.

Thanks Mommie.
