I know the libs will squeal at this but mayube a little racial profiling
is in order? Like, check out people with obviously Muslim names a little
more closely than pasty white "Bubba Joe Smith" from Texarkana
(apologies if Bubba Joe actually resides on this group).

Yup, racial profiling would have caught Timothy McVeigh and the
Unabomber. If you want to use terrorist profiling, fine, but concentrate
on racial profiling the true terrorists can slip through. Guys, like
this, for instance.

No one said profiling would catch all the bad guys but if the threat is from
a people from a specific ethnic group, deliberately ignoring people from
that group because of "political correctness" is it's own kind of crazy.
If my neighborhood was experiencing a rash of buglaries and the suspects,
based on prior arrests, were teenage anglo males, would I be incorrect in
being aware of this and watching people that fit that description?
Is it ok to profile white people?
