"... We shouldn't have frisked them because they were "pregnant"? ... terrorists are going to eat your lunch because we have to protect the honor of "pregnant" women? ..."

The "honor" of pregnant women? It isn't just pregnant women, BigBobber.

The Patriot Act was our government's official notice that our society is no longer free. Airport searches have nothing to do with "security." They are only meant to condition us, to convince us that we need government to protect us.

I think you can get in trouble by over-generalizing. I consider myself a libertarian and I'm very suspicious of the Patriot Act and other measures that appear to impinge on our freedoms.

However, Bush and the feds are NOT conditioning us to be afraid. They are telling us every chance they get that "Islam is a religion of peace" and to go about our lives, fly in planes, etc.

My fear of Muslim terrorism is based on rational analysis of the facts we read wbout every day. Muslim terrorists like to use bombs. They have on several occasions USED WOMEN AS BOMBERS. They have asked our courts to allow Mulim women to keep their veils on for IDENTIFICATION PHOTOS. They get very indignant about "kafirs" looking at or touching their women.

So I asked a simple question that no one is willing to answer. How do you tell if a "pregnant" women is really pregnant and not a Muslim terrorist? This has nothing to do with the Patriot Act. How are you going to do it?

The thrust of this article is that "pregnant women" should not be patted down in airports. If we fall for that one, Johnney Mommamed is going to have free pass to smuggle anything they want onto airplanes with the help of their Burka-clad compadres.

So I ask once again. How are you going to stop them?
