Look, you said in post #2, "Dammit. Protect my family... PROFILE!!"
Who do you think does that? FR posters? Not likely. It's the government.
One thing leads to another. They issue an alert. You respond to the propaganda, by crying out for more profiling. Next time they issue one of their ambigious alerts, you'll cry out for something else that violates the Constitution. On and on it goes and before long, you'll have given away the farm. They do it bit-by-bit, because they don't want anyone to notice. Nevertheless, some do.
You know, a lot of people disagree with me. They are the ones who believe that sometimes, to be safe, we are supposed to suspend the Constitution, and trust the government to do the right thing and take care of us. Your remark sounded like that. I don't buy that philosophy. To the contrary, I believe that the Constitution provides the government with all the power it requires, even in the context of an emergency, to do it's constitutional duty. There's even a past Supreme Court justice who agrees with me on that. Like taxes, give the government power that was once yours, you'll never get it back. Give them your Bill of Rights, and you're no longer a free person, living in a free society. You're a slave.
So my position has been made clear and there's no sense in arguing about it, because from here, I will not falter. As I have said in the past, many, many times. I am a strict constitutionalist. Anyone or anything that breeches that philosophy, or approaches it with the intent of altering it, is dangerous to the future of the Republic.
The only "problem", as you say, I have is that I look deeper than most. I do not accept things at face-value. If you desire to be right, so be it. Consider yourself right. It's no skin off my nose. At least, you know that your position is not universally accepted.
Do I understand you correctly, LE's use of nationality and sex in profiling is a no no but the religious cleansing of America is a go?
I want airline pilots to profile. I want my local grocer to profile. I want my neighbors to profile...etc.
What about this makes you think I want government to profile?
You think you know it all, don't you? Admit it... you think you know better than I what I mean. Even though I typed nothing about the government... even though your myopic view actually invented/created the non-existent "government" in my post, and even though your ignorance to reading my post a second time to see that I did not mention government... youstill assert something demonstrably false?! LOL!!!
Read my posts again! I vehemently reject government provided "security".
Why do you insist otherwise? I'm very curious about that. Why would you assert something so obviously false?
You have shown to be quite foolish. Perhaps you've had a busy day and haven't taken the time to read my posts? Please, go back and read them. They say nothing about government provided "security". It was you who brought that up.
You're what's wrong with FR. You're always "right"...even in a case such as this where you've invented a make believe world for yourself in which you invenst things for people to say that make you right.
I never said I wanted government involved. Got it? You invented that!
Now run along and take your meds.
