Part of effective profiling is not just in looking at ethnicity, it is looking at stress and fear. That blue-haired grandma forced to carry a bomb is going to be a stress meltdown. She is going to show. And she is going to fess up under interviewing. Bomb off, plane safe.

Be nice if it were that easy. And sometimes I'm sure it would be that easy. But there would be exceptions. "Oh, officer, I'm just afraid to fly."

And of course, there would never be any repercussions for mercilessly interrogating innocent little old ladies who were 'just a little nervous' about flying. (And if you don't think the liberal press would characterize it that way, you're living in a different world than I live in.)

But in fact, you're making my point. Even little old ladies need to be subject to scrutiny, so that the terrorists don't even try to use them as mules.

Thank you for noting this!
