The airlines strongly opposed profiling because they "feared" it would cause lawsuits from potential customers.

And the government didn't?

If you think Bill Clinton's FAA would have profiled at airline gates, you're dreaming.

So, Arabs were allowed by the FAA, and boxcutters were allowed by the FAA. Tell me where the airlines screwed up.

If the airlines had profiled to the point of keeping these Arabs off planes, you would be at the head of the line bitching and bellyaching about Americans losing their rights.

"If you think Bill Clinton's FAA would have profiled at airline gates, you're dreaming."

It was Clintons' FAA and Freeh who wanted to initiate some type of profiling program!!!! Jesus, did anyone other than the FBI and other security agencies read the report posted in #182??????????????????????????????????

I give up. You're right. The government was complicit and allowed the hijackers to attack and kill all those people. The government should be held responsible. The airlines were innocent. You're right, I'm wrong. I'll just borrow one of your tinfoil hats and wear it to keep them from taking my guns too. And if any of your best friends work with the TSA, then you will know I'm right. I doubt that you'll ever be able to prove what happened then and the circus that is occuring now. The airport security problem is now being obstructed by local authorities. This too is ending as we speak. But I'm going to take your approach. I'm going to wrap my body in tinfoil to keep that harmful anti-airline radiation from permeating my soul.
