Speaking of camels...
Now we need to get our act together.
of course it will. we have to end this ridiculous blindness.
"Now we need to get our act together."
Yup. This author wrote about the Brits as if we were already profiling here. Apparently he doesn't understand that we still randomly pull little old ladies out of lines to strip search them at US airports (could have poison tipped knitting needles - you never know!)
Hey I like your idea. I have an idea for a new airline company. All the planes have pig-skin seats - eating bacon is mandatory on board and before boarding each passenger must raise his right hand and say "Mohammed is a homo".
Think the regulators will let me launch my new enterprise? I'd fly on my new airline all the time.
Book me a flight.
Pigskin leather seats in all airlines will be more economical.
Someday we hope to be like the Brits (Did I write that out loud?)
BTW, Rocket Surgery Vs Rocket Science? Surgery on Rockets? What does this pay? I might be interested.
It goes beyond political correctness. It goes to the ACLU which is a communist front organization. Both its founders were communists. The organization targets any policy which involves religion or good government practice. It NEEDS TO BE STOPPED!
In Britain racial and religious profiling isn't against the law. Unfortunately in the USA this is not the case.
*Their West Indians have been "howling" for years about "racism."
*The Pakis and Indians aren't Arabs, of course, but they are just as vocal, if not more. Now it's the Muslim Pakistanis turn to howl. Almost all of them ARE Muslim.
Truth be known, the Pakistanis have been howling for years about their treatment from the Anglo British. They accuse the British of racism. Nothing new.
*Remember one Indian who "howled" at his treatment in South Africa? Mohandas Ghandi. The Indians and Pakistanis (same people) are good at howling.
*Before the West Indian blacks, it was the Irish.
They "howled" for hundreds of years about the treatment they got from the British. The Catholics in Northern Ireland didn't have the right to vote as late as 1961. If it weren't for Bernadette Devlin howling away on the boob tube, we Americans (and the world) wouldn't have known about it. So much for British "democracy." Lol. Even our greatest friends and allies (and our biggest foreign investor$$) on the planet aren't perfect.
Nowadays, the Brits probably look longingly and fondly at the howling from fellow Christian Europeans. At least they had religion and race (language, history, tradition, culture, etc.) in common.
This isn't new or different. It's just that for Americans it's new because we don't follow what's going on there. Whether it's religion, ethnicity or race, the howlers will always be there.
The REAL howl SHOULD be from the Christian middle class about taxes and a deterioration of Christian values.
It seems that none of the minorities in Britain will ever be happy. They will always feel slighted, inferior and diminished. That seems to be their life in white, Christian countries.
You might re-read the article. The author was applauding the Brits for finally 'seeing the light' and dissing our PC approach to airline security.
Many universities receiving federal funds practice profiling under the rubric named "affirmative action".
Too bad America has not.
"Praise Allah!"
BINGO BUMP!
Neal gets it. Thanks for the ping, phil.
