Hey, I have an idea! Why not zero in on the people most likely to blow up a plane! (17-25 year old middle-eastern males)

It's becoming increasingly clear that a determined, intelligent group of people can probably come up with a way to bring down an airplane, regardless of TSA, etc.

Look more for the people, in addition to the tools.

Whaddaya think folks?

the money triangulation program was a wonderful tool. Probably nabbed these cretins. But the NY Times thought we have the RIGHT to know.

Nah. Better to ban inanimate objects. I mean, look how well gun control works.

Why not shut down the militant mosques enlisting jihadist armies?

It's a bad idea. As a profile forms, the enemy switches tactics. They just need to get blond haired, blue-eyed Muslim converts to do their bidding. They are already doing this, in fact. Same with babies and the elderly. As soon as we stop checking any group of people, they will become the next carriers, victims of evil people who don't mind killing anyone to do their nefarious deeds.

This is correct. There is NO POSSIBLE WAY to ensure security of the public as long as there exists a group of zealots determined to kill the innocent, without regard to the consequences. Eliminating the source of the threat is the only answer.

Yep. A policy based on "well I guess we have to check for that too" is nothing but a slow march to the grave. There's only one thing we need to check for right now: Muslim males.
