There's always going to be somebody who doesn't get on the list. Don't need "racial" profiling. Some of these jihadists are white. Just check the Muslims close, especially the young ones. Male and female. Those are the ones that blow themselves and innocents to smithereens. Might be wrong, but I can't recall any suicide bomber being over 30 years old. McVeigh has nothing to do with these. Different animal. He didn't blow himself up. That's why arming passengers won't work either. A .45 against 2 pounds of C-4 at 30,000 feet always has the same winner. El Al doesn't have a problem, but they devote smart people and a hard-ass attitude to the weeding process. I don't understand the attitude of fliers that they don't want to suffer "discomfort." Being blown out of the air is real discomfort. There's a war going on.

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. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adam_Yahiye_Gadahn Given time, inginuity anyone can slip through. Given we don't have the resources to pollygraph every flyer with an intensive background check, no mater what one does it is going to boil down to getting most of them most of the time. Adam Yahiye Gadahn would have matched young male muslim/islam. One Timothy McVeigh and how many muslim/islamic nut cases? http://www.cnn.com/2009/US/02/26/hat...ort/index.html I don't make them up. How many air plane incidents in say the last 10 years involve other than young male islam/muslims? Don't give me the hate group nonsense. If I am looking for terrorists I am not going to be wearing a turbin padding down an eldery white nun living 30 years in Arkansas I am going to get no where. |

Profiling is a tool. Reading body language is another. Intelligence another. flajim learned all this on the only real job he's had...chipping paint on the deck of a ship 35 years ago when he was a navy boy. Does Flajim give you a woodie as well. Whatever happened to you? You used to like girls. I guess KY jelly gave you a whole new life, eh. -- It's flattering to see so many of you turds spoofing me. |

Frankly, I don't see how Nepolitano had a whole hell of a lot to do with it. Her comment about How well the system works in relation to this incident has people scratching their heads. I can see where it's confused you as well. Let's see, aren't most foreign flights TO the US loaded outside the US? Shouldn't there be coordination of efforts between the US and foreign countries? You should check with flajim, frogwatch, and the rest of the right-wing morons here. They know nothing about airport security, either. Damn those morons, if it wasn't for intellectual giants such as you and me, this group would be useless. |

Then you have 80% of the resources to go after 20% that remain. Increases the odds of being effective. 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. You base this on what? Your crap job in the navy 40 years ago and no real employment in your entire lifetime? Harry, very few people have as good of a job as you and i have had. i worked for a crown corp. and your wife paid you to stay in the basement and not embarrass her. What a life. |

Have to ask Janet "The System Worked" Napolitano. "DHS Secretary Janet Napolitano said that the thwarting of the attempt to blow up the Amsterdam-Detroit flight this week demonstrated that “the system worked.” What a clueless wench. More like the idiot got nervious when mixing the chemicals and messed up on his lap. Hope he burned his balls. But luck had more to do with it. It wasn't time to die for the people on board. But the plane landed safely, so the system had to work, eh? One has to ask how the system made a difference. He got on the plane right past authorities with an explosive compound. It was his mistakes, not the governments actions that saved the day. Because even if you were willing to die, I doubt seriously you would want to fry your balls first. Ok, that was funny. In any case she was talking about after the incident started. Perhaps we should see what the investigations show? Nah... just blame Obama. Actiually, I blame peoples stupidity. But Obama be the one responsible these days. I didn't agree with Bush's go at it either. Too many purely politicial barriers in doing this right. For example, why did it take so long to put locks on the cabin doors to the pilots? Because big budgets and fast talk were more important than reality. Talk a look at who they do catch, and always there is a person behind it that takes there job seriously, including profiling and whatever they can use. |
