I'll ask again (unless you are Alan):

So you think Bush should encourage racial profiling?

[Registered]

Hey, let me answer that one.

YES!

IN ADDITION TO RANDOM SEARCHES OF ALL PASSENGERS, EVERY MIDDLE EASTERN LOOKING MAN, WOMAN AND CHILD SHOULD BE FULLY SEARCHED AT THE AIRPORTS.

In a word--YES. Not RACIAL profiling necessarily, but profiling where one follows Sutton's Law (in case you don't know what S'sL is, when asked "Willy--why do you rob banks?" Willy Sutton replied "That's where the money is." Brilliant.

When we look for a serial killer of prostitutes we look for white males between the ages of 25 and 50; when we look for terrorists in 2002 we look for Arabic men between the ages of 18 and 35--what does not make sense to you on this? I really really want to know...

So you think Bush should encourage racial profiling?

Yes! I DO!!!

[ml/nj]

So you think Bush should encourage racial profiling?

Absolutely!

BTW, we're talking profiling here. Any kind. Racial (which asking the Abduls of the World to take off their shoes, etc., is not), religious, age based.

Anyone who thinks otherwise is hopelessly brain dead.

Well duh!

[tomkat]

So you think Bush should encourage racial profiling?

YES

clear enough ?

[Twodees]

Oh yeah. Bush certainly should order that racial profiling be used in all security procedures and investigations by feds. You sound as though you buy the liberal BS about profiling being bad somehow. Racial/ethnic profiling is simply sound security/police work.
