Part of the professionalization process is the training of airport security staff in what's been called psychological profiling or behavioral analysis or a number of other terms that all amount to the same thing -- avoiding allegations of racial profiling while at the same time effectively screening out potential terrorists.

Soldiers deserve TSA's respect in screenings at airports

At Baltimore's airport on my way back to Orlando from Iraq, there were about 50 soldiers in line, waiting to be cleared by TSA. I noticed soldiers taking off clothing, and then they assumed the position so commonly seen in police-chase videos, arms and legs spread wide as a screener passed a wand close to their bodies. Soldiers were asked to remove belts, boots and shirts, and their carry-on bags were ransacked.

The ACLU is a non-profit organization, but it seems the have been empowered with a quasi-governmental status

It has been my personal experience that most of the ACLU is comprised of pinheads that park in the middle of the road, don't get it right away when you ask them to move the car, and have recently pizzed off one of their two friends. they are worse than worthless and are a last resort for loosers.

They have power because so many people submit to them that should be kicking them out of their buildings.

The ACLU's continued actions could result in me putting my foot so far up all of their butt's the water on my knee will quench their thirst. Keep in mind this could only be a possible result.
