Gees, why let anyone who even "looks" suspicious into the country in the first place? Perhaps we could post pictures in public places highlighting those particular facial characteristics we now know point to a person's propensity for violence against innocent people... Wait a minute....what about Tim McVeigh? Damn, perhaps a background search would turn up some unsavory semitic blood...perhaps some kind of blood test...or measuring the distance between one's eyes and chin...Whatever it takes to root out those responsible for the terrorist attacks, or heck, to at least hold responsible those people who look similar to the murderers.

The bleating of an anti-American, anti-Western, multiculturalist open-borders liberal. It's your type that has saddled us with millions of America-hating, seething, resentful third world immigrants whose communities provide cover for these and other terrorists.

Your attempt at sarcasm and exaggeration of what I actually wrote is not very effective. All I am suggesting is that anyone who fits the most likely profile--Arab male non-U.S. citizens--that we search what they bring on airplanes. Innocent people who fit the profile will still be able to board planes. They just will need to have their stuff searched before boarding.
Osama bin Laden and his gang of thugs have declared war on the U.S. His people almost invariably fit the profile.

"...or measuring the distance between one's eyes and chin..." I know you were being facetious, but in addition to searching our luggage and carry-ons, I think everyone entering a plane SHOULD be scanned by the software that ID's you if you're on a wanted or suspect list. Those are God-given features (distance between eyes, etc.) and aren't in the same category as being registered or ID'd any other way.

Lame and pointless exagerration.
