Don't forget there are many blue-eyed/blond-haired muslims, along with blacks and Asians.

I sure hope they crack down on the grandmothers, as usual. You wouldn't believe the power of the chemicals that make their hair blue. They're a really dangerous bunch.

They are not going to profile here. Get used to it. So they must do something.

As a Hindu American I look pretty similar to Pakistanis (brown with black hair) but I'd put up with profiling and the occasional wand if it could keep these bastards from blowing up planes. How long is this going to be tolerated?

More insanity at TSA and DHS. They're doing this to us because they refuse to profile.

And President Bush refuses to countermand them.

I'm driving everywhere, not flying.

All day I have watched calm, uncomplaining people, both Brit and Yank, patiently go through the chaos at the airports. I heard interviews on many shows with passengers and everyone was cheerful and undertanding.

Must have bothered AP, so they made sure to make this the sort of article that elicits groans. Maybe Schumer was the stringer on this story!

I am glad they don't give the crews special treatment. I do not trust that crews are not infiltrated by Muslims.

After 9/11, I was dreading flying, from all the negative stories. In reality, it was not much worse than before, except for the shoe part.

Passengers can expect double screening (Sticking it to everyone equally in the name of security)

just speaking for myself...I'd rephrase it this way:

Passengers can expect double screening (Just to avoid the insane whining
of ACLU and CAIR)


or

Passengers can expect double screening (So that American Infidels will
evenually "come to Allah" to avoid all this Bravo Sierra)


Any ideology that forces me to spend 3 hours in preparation
for a domestic flight...is the one I won't miss if it's erased from
the planet.

Oh good. Now the airlines will have an excuse to charge you for a glass of water. How perfect for them.

Do "black" American-Muslims fit the same profile as those from the Middle East?

I can't watch any more of the news. It makes my brain boil!
You wanna stop planes blowing up?
You START by not allowing Muslims on them. At all. Ever. For any reason Age 1-100 years- Muslims don't fly, period.If they can't get there by camel, they can't get there at all.

THEN you do widespread searches like this IF there is reason to believe that non-Muslims are being recruited.
Its Bass-Ackwards.
Hello....George? World??
Countries without Muslims are not worried about internal terrorism. They can't hit you if they aren't here/aboard planes/working near planes.
Worldwide Islam should be punished until it stops producing barbarians. Maybe if enough 'good' Muslims( lol ) can't travel they'll get mad enough at the 'bad' Muslims to deal with those giving their sweet, innocent 'religion' a bad name.
Gotta stop - can't laugh hysterically and type.

"Then they said, 'This is stupid. We're taking toothpaste away from the guy who's going to fly the plane..."

Something odd here. I'm thinking the guy who flies the plane should be the MOST screened. Am I missing something?

Each new layer of screenings, banned items, restrictions, etc, in the name of "security" is just another incremental victory for AQ. They would like out society to be as restrictive and oppressive as their sharia-law enclaves of the 8th century; and we are handing it to them piece by piece.

Ben Franklin correctly said "those who would sacrifice liberty in order to gain temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety".

My daughter came up with a great idea. No one can board a plane until they eat a slice of bacon. Once eaten they can board.

If they don't search and scrutinize everybody, they are accused of "profiling." When we should be profiling, we cannot due to PC. So, we inspect everyone and after a bunch of the same repetitive searching of obviously safe people, a tired or bored TSA agent just may miss the one he really should be searching.
