That is exactly one of the problems with profiling. You don't spend
20% of the resources. You spend 80% of the resources, and ignore all
the rest. Put two people on an airplane, one a young Muslim man, the
other an older white woman. The woman is carrying the bomb. While all
the airport security focuses on the young Muslim man, the woman slips
on board.

Rediculous. You would never get a job as a profiler.

Yup, but consider, this last incident was caused by a black Nigerian,
not
an Arab. As I said before, if you want to profile a terrorist, fine,
but
if you think racial profiling is the answer, you are going to miss a lot
of terrorists, McVeigh, the Unabomber, the Shoe Bomber, Black Widows,
etc., etc.

The majority religion in Nigeria is Islam.


AND a visit to Yemen...quick google search on "yemen terrorism" has quit a
few hits. Including a ship bombing.

This guy had terrorist almost written all over him.
Nigeria-Yemem-Amsterdam-Detroit isn't a common or direct flight plan.


Has anyone checked the thought that he might be an Obama relative coming in
for an auto exec position?

Hey, just asking.

LMAO... that was funny. But work in Obama's heritage is Kenya, but who
knows...AIDS is popular over there as people do get around.
