Okay, I'll profile and you check the grannies. Guess who'll get more terrorists? (I do agree with your concerns about the threat coming from a new and unexpected direction/source)
Years ago when I worked in a bank, we were always reminded not to be any more suspicious of the grubby guy in tattered clothes than the guy in the three piece suit.
Terrorists are undoubtedly masters of deceit and have strived diligently to infiltrate and blend into common society where it serves their purpose.
I guess we need to remember that actions speak louder than words and appearances.
if you ever dream a lottery number, could you please email it to me?
Profiling need not be a trap, just one of many productive tools that must not lay unused in our 'toolbox.'
Ok, now I am tired....;-)
Major population centers are typically democrat strongholds with all the liberal leftist crap emminating. Forgive me, but if some of these social garbage heaps were leveled by terrorist actions, or parts of city given a strong dose of World Reality, it just might wake scare enough of the Utopian crap out of those general populace's to tilt the political landscape back to something sensible.
I sometimes wonder if everything doesn't happen for a reason, or if there isn't a silver lining in every cloud:)
Why, I NEVER! Hummmppppfffffff
Seriously, folks, MM's right. Very right. I'd be real surprised if it's NOT already being planned by some fringe group. Of whites. In America.
You mean like the average looking American today in the SF airport? These people are highy sophisticated and we must never ever forget that.
and it won't be over during my life. or, it might continue until 3000 a.d.
when did mohammed sweep outta the deserts and across northern africa?--640s a.d.
aren't religions fun?
How old are you, my fellow poster?
OK, I'm gonna step waaaaayyy out on a limb here....and dispute your statement. What those idiots did on 9-11 and what they're still planning on doing, is NOT religion. They're murderers hiding behind the name of religion.
therefore it follows that the violence in ireland, israel, and india will end soon.
Ken, it'll end when Jesus returns to this earth and establishes His kingdom. Not a moment sooner.
but, the more i think about it, the onus is then on you to explain why those suicide bombers come forward "in the name of allah" and kill innocents?
obviously they don't think as you or other civilized people.
i doubt that there is an answer. christians sent armies on the crusades.
it just goes on and on and on.
