If I were a terrorist, finding my next targets would be a no brainer.
I would study court rulings, such as these, to determine where are the easiest places for me to smuggle in whatever weapon or bomb I wanted

OK it might not be a belt, but I could hide some type of explosive or warhead in there. I even know how to disguise the fuse and at the same time reduce the risk of a body cavity search. Have I said too much?

Meanwhile, in the Meadowlands in New Jersey, a special area has been set aside where Muslim fans can pray during a game. Isn't that called "home?"

That's okay. Everyone knows that if a terrorist strikes at an NFL game it will be from the Goodyear Blimp and not a fan in seat H347.You think they saw that movie?
My money is on Enrico Palazzo....

personally don't like living in a world where I am perpetually a suspect. If that's the way we have to be, then the terrorists Islamofacists and other totalitarians have already won. Bravo to the judge who is courageously taking the risk on himself because you can't pat down everybody, all the time, anyway. That is my feeling as well. One cannot have a free society based on "what if" scenarios.

IMHO, the only good way to keep Americans safe is to bomb each and every one of the terrorists back to the stoneage.
Regardless of how many of our freedoms we sacrifice they will still find a way as long as they are alive.
To: GeronL
They have metal detectors at government schools don't they? and court houses? And Federal Buildings, and the government buildings in Washington. And what about airports...the Tampa Airport is "owned" and operated by the county Aviation Authority, but searches go on there.

I wonder if his logic had something to do with the stadium being state property - I think I remember a Six Flags case upholding the right of a private property owner to require searches as a condition of entry.
That said, football just wouldn't be the same without frats and alums getting their flasks in.

Yea baabeee!!!
I am so glad its football season again. Next is Hockey!
To: dawn53
Hey, if the name of the game is making money then they are simply doing what they are supposed to be doing.
This business of home brewed bombs is disturbing though...
To: freepatriot32
Contrast this ruling with that of Judge Berman concerning the
NYC Subway searches. Granted it is random search versus pat down, but the key difference is that the judge acknowledged that there is a such thing as a tasty target. Not having read this Tampa ruling, I'm not sure whether random searches would be allowed, but OK, let the sports fan beware. Quite frankly, if the terrorists mess with the NFL season, they seal their doom. Then again, isn't that what the Iran kook wants?

I wonder if the news media or CAIR are going to send a bunch of suspicious-acting Moose Limbs into footballs stadiums this season and then film everybody's responses?

Bravo to the judge who is courageously taking the risk on himself because you can't pat down everybody, all the time, anyway. I know that we are in the minority, but I agree. These evil b*#! do not win when they kill us; they win when they take our way of life from us. Our freedom, our unity, our peace of mind. If we are doomed to live in a world of perpetual terror like sheep whose every move is and behavior is scrutinized by goverment then we have surrendered to them; bowed right down and said, "You win muzzie...". Freedom is not free, it is paid for in blood. How soon we forget this. As a soldier, I don't forget this... and as a Christian, I'm not afraid...
