TSA is a poor substitute for security. It's been crap since it was set up

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.
Wearing a nice clean hospital gown and getting a free prostate or
vaginal exam sounds like a pretty good deal.
But just good screening should take care of it. Despite all the talk
of these terrorists being "sophisticated" they're not bright bulbs.
Just we've been stupid in letting them get close.
And way too PC. I still don't understand why somebody didn't jack up
that Ft. Hood shooter before he shot up our boys.
Seems somebody should have broke his nose and drawn him out for
a discharge before it happened.
If the terrorists had any "sophistication" they'd be shooting down
airliners with Stingers instead of mixing up vinegar and Chlorox
bleach or whatever the hell they're doing to set their crotch on fire.
That's all Jack Bauer bull****. And remember, even Santa handed Bauer
his ass on a plate.

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?

Profiling has had some successes with single individuals. When you are
talking of a terrorist organization, it will just look for whackos that
don't fit the profile. By the way, Mohammed Atta doesn't fit your

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

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.
Wearing a nice clean hospital gown and getting a free prostate or
vaginal exam sounds like a pretty good deal.
But just good screening should take care of it. Despite all the talk
of these terrorists being "sophisticated" they're not bright bulbs.
Just we've been stupid in letting them get close.
And way too PC. I still don't understand why somebody didn't jack up
that Ft. Hood shooter before he shot up our boys.
Seems somebody should have broke his nose and drawn him out for
a discharge before it happened.
If the terrorists had any "sophistication" they'd be shooting down
airliners with Stingers instead of mixing up vinegar and Chlorox
bleach or whatever the hell they're doing to set their crotch on fire.
That's all Jack Bauer bull****. And remember, even Santa handed Bauer
his ass on a plate.

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.


I doubt if you have any data to back up your suppositions.
Profiling is a tool. Reading body language is another. Intelligence
another.

Her comment about How well the system works in relation to this

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

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

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.
