“...dumb on this screening stuff..” “forced to carry explosives...” aboard airplanes. Hmmmm.

Are you intimating that white-haired grannies with canes or walkers or the children of obviously non-Middle Eastern parents would pose a security threat? Then I submit that you are part of the problem. Acceptance of this breech of the 4th amendment (unlawful search) will only lead to more egregious breeches.

It’s time to engage some brain-power and solve this problem outside the PC bureaucratic box. Targeted profiling and professional screeners could solve the aviation security problems with much less pain to travelers and the airline industry. (El Al’s approach to security as a template)

Right now, the TSA fails to find/identify 90% of the hidden security test objects sent through their screening to check their effectiveness, and you’re worried about Swedish children being forced to carry explosives. Sigh!

Outlaw islam and deport all muzzzies.

islam is not a religion, it's a political doctrine and wholly incompatible with freedom and Western Culture.

The hijackers boarded planes in out of the way places where security was lax and transferred to other airports. They are still doing this by way of boarding in other countries. They attacked the weakest link.

If you establish that certain classes of people will be held to a lesser screening requirement you create a weaker link in the chain which could be exploited. It is common sense. On the other hand, if you want to argue that everyone who is a Muslim should receive extra screening and scrutiny then I'm all for it.

Do you have a link or source to that? I'd like to document it. Thanks.
