I’m confused. So the muzzies don’t mind a good crotch-fondle as long as the TSApes don’t touch their head/neck? Okaaaaay.

Groping him would have prevented this? In what universe? Banning him for being a muslim - now that would fix the problem.

What the TSA should be doing is not racial profiling, but personality profiling. The problem with that is you need someone with brains to carry it out.

absolutely no universe.

but had he decided to bring explosives instead, he, as a muzzie should be first on the grope list. my point was that flight crew should be no more exempt than any other group.

Pilot = most dangerous person on aircraft; can crash the aircraft.

Flight Attendant = 2nd most dangerous person on aircraft due to access to cockpit.

They’ll make exceptions until the people with any influence aren’t being the ones targeted. That means regular people.

So now the terrorists know that they have to start dating some flight attendants and charm the heck out of them so that they can, unbeknownst to them, carry their backpacks, etc. and blow up some airplanes or terminals.

Thanks for letting Al Qaeda know about this, Obama administration!!

Sorry, all or none. A pilot, politician, or stewardess is just as likely to bomb a plane as my sixty plus year old mother.

The muzzies could make a very strong point by taking out a major shopping mall on Fri. Much easier, and much more lethal and traumatic than an airliner.

You can always request to pat down your own scarf, including head and neck area, and have the officer perform a residue swab of your hands.”

Do you know how real profiling works?
_______________________________________________

Yeah ...

Lets target all the white American grandmothers and make it look like we are doing a good job...

3 out of 4 times I have flown since 9?11 I have been puulled aside for PROLONGED wanding and I have never caused the metal detector door to go off...

I take my watch off and putit in a bin, I dont wear a belt or jewellery or anything else that could cause it to buzz...

I dont have change or anything else in my pockets...

I wear jeans with elastic instead of a zip...

You name it I’ve done it as a precaution...

I’m polite and cooperative and patient and obedient...

My 3 ozes and plastic bags are regimental...

and yet I get PROFILED to be wanded...

so its not because we cause the door to buzz...

Its because we are PROFILED as non-Moslem...

Dont you think there would be a swift law suit if a Moslem was wanded ???

or now scanned nude or groped ???

Flight attendants are exempt only from the scanner due to frequent flying.

However, they must go through the metal detector and if it goes off, are subjected to the pat down.

Explain to us how real profiling works. I think that lots of us are confused as to how profiling of people at greater risk of being terrorists really works. It seems as if, up to now, everyone is considered an equal risk of blowing up the plane, because we don’t want to do any profiling. Maybe I’m mistaken.
