So it was a 'drunken' Muslim. In light of this, scrambling two F-16's turn out to be appropriate.

Another article which can’t be posted said he grabbed a flight attendant’s arm, then took off his socks and shoes and threw them.

Forced labor under confinement to pay in full ALL the costs of his acting out his Jihadist boner, not to mention full prosecution of any and all criminal behavior.

I bet he has also been Skyping with Anwar Al-Awlaqi over in Yemen, too.

Some of these have GOT to be tests.

Always ask.

W.W.E.A.D.?

What would El-Al do?

So, what's going to happen when one of the obamites gets overzealous about serving dear reader and orders those F-16's to shoot down a loaded 737 because some nutcase locked himself in the restroom?

American warplanes shooting down an American passenger jet...that should work really well for the kenyan.

He's got all this building up to a high-pitched fervor to cover his own ass, and he's playing right into the hands of Al Qaeda.

America is in the hands of an idiot.

Or...a “cry wolf” plan.

IOW—you get a good number of muslims to ACT like they are a threat...cause a disturbance on some plane or such..over and over..

After enough times of ‘false alarms” and the ensuing ACLU and ACORN, SEIU and CAIR lawsuits over “rights of the poor innocent Muslims”..THEN...the TSA would begin to think”we are overreacting” and start ignoring said actions. At that point the REAL terrorist acts coud go ahead unheeded—till it is too late to stop them.

Just a thought.

No, I really don't see a pattern here to justify profiling, do you?

So, to ensure we Americans never offend anyone, particularly fanatics intent on killing us, airport security screeners will no longer be allowed to profile certain people..

They must conduct random searches of 80-year-old women, little kids, airline pilots with proper identification, secret agents who are members of the President's security detail, 85-year old Congressmen with metal hips, and Medal of Honor winner and former Governor Joe Foss, but leave Muslim Males between the ages 17 and 40 alone lest they be guilty of profiling.
