How about Barak Obama? Is that a Muslim name? Muslim sounding at least?
Muslim appearance...Muslim smell...Muslim actions
Can you describe these for me?
You imply that since there is no way to define a 100% accurate profile that we can't do it at all. Just because profiling alone might let caucasion Imam Larry Smith through doesn't mean it shouldn't be done.
What I'm saying is that if we're depending on the profiling abilities of a $10 per hour TSA rent-a-cop then we're living in a fantasy land. Threats should be stopped by law enforcement before they make it anywhere near the airport.
Profile him

Get serious, I was joking about the smell part, but appearance (clothes, beards) and actions (Praying to Allah, etc) are pretty self explanatory

Straw man.
I never said to depend on them, I just think they should be allowed, taught, and encouraged. Profiling is one tool, not the only one.
