Perhaps. But only if the ACLU continues to dismantle the President's
authority to detain illegal combatants in this war on terror.

You mean, the government's new hobby, detaining people like these?

And, don't hand us any bull**** about the source, as you usually do.

Muslims Detained at Border Sue U.S. Homeland Security

By Michelle Garcia
Special to The Washington Post
Thursday, April 21, 2005; Page A08

NEW YORK, April 20 -- American Muslims detained at the border as they
returned from a religious conference in Toronto sued the Department of
Homeland Security on Wednesday alleging they were targets of ethnic and
religious profiling.

The five Muslims, all U.S. citizens, say customs officials detained
dozens of others from their conference in December, subjecting them to
interrogations, fingerprinting and photographing.

I have no problem with the "source" of this story...nor with actions of
the Dept. of Homeland Security.

Those 5 folks who were detained are certainly more apt to commit
terrorist attacks than an 80 year old grandmother. It's about time they
started racial profiling...especially for people who travel to
"conferences" that have suspected ties to terrorism.


Besides...questioning, fingerprinting, and photographing hardly qualify
as "detainment". So what's the big deal?


But professor, you objected to the exact same type of policies when
practiced by the USSR. Sorry. Can't have it both ways.


No I didn't. I'm all for a National Photo ID card and fingerprint and/or
retinal scans at the airport and border crossings.


Nope. You're lying. When you were younger, you went along with the
anti-communist party line, agreed with Reagan 100% about his "evil empire"
views. The totalitarian tactics were the bane of your existence. You only
claim to approve of them now because the only way you can tread water in a
debate is to bait your opponents.

As opposed to Bert, who joined the Marine Corps to fight communism, but
knew nothing about it.

Interestingly, both Bert and our latest anonymous remailer poster curse
about the same. Anyone else notice?


You are too funny. Are you going to go fishing in river that your 36' lobsta
boat can't navigate this weekend?

When stripper trophy season is in full swing you are fishing for Blue Gill
in a fresh water river hundreds of miles from the bay?

Would you please stop dumping your garbage in here? You seem to post here
with a 100 different names and most of your messages are exactly the same. I
don't have time to set up all sorts of filters. Other than annoying everyone
do you have a reason for doin what you are doing? I look in here a couple of
times a week for interesting fishing or boat-fishing stuff, and what I find
are hundreds of meaningless posts from you full of cuss words and insults.

Can't you stop this bad behavior?

I'll simplify this. You say you believe in things like ID cards, etc., and
that you were OK with similar obscenities when practiced in the USSR and its
Eastern European satellite countries. You're lying to yourself when you make
that statement. Why? Because you haven't thoroughly thought out all the
ramifications of these practices, many of which are the reason so many fled
from those countries.

You will now say that people left those countries because they wanted to
live in a free enterprise system, but that's hardly the whole story and you
know it.

So, think about this: You're anchored somewhere quiet on your boat, just you
and the girlfriend, or maybe even your wife. You're about to administer a
beef injection down in the cabin when a boat pulls up and announces on its
loudspeaker "Come out of the cabin with your ID cards. You have 30 seconds."
You can't get dressed quick enough, so you are boarded, and both of you are
dragged, half naked, out of the cabin. The cabin is tossed by the
"authorities" you say you believe in. Meanwhile, your ID card is in your
pocket, but they toss the entire cabin anyway.

They search your girlfriend's purse and find she's carrying a handgun. They
see her permit. In Florida, you are not required to notify an officer that
you're carrying, but these guys are Feds, so because they think their ****
don't stink, they believe the law applies only to state or local cops. They
tell your girlfriend that because she forgot to inform them of the gun,
they're confiscating it, and her too. "The president's gonna be down this
way for a fund raiser next week. What did you have in mind with the gun,
lady?"

This is potentially what you are agreeing with. And if you think there
aren't enough antisocial types who'd gladly sign up, put on a uniform, and
do things like this to innocent citizens under the guise of "national
security", think again. You've already seen it done.

The Feds have had this power on the waterways for some time now. It has
nothing to do with ID cards.

It's far worse than your scenario, Doug. If there is a federal ID card,
and you are required to show it for various reasons, there also will be
various nefarious reasons why the authorities will take the card from you,
and you'll be unable to travel or to do any of the other things that
require the card.


The legislation can be written to avoid such a thing from happening. It's
an *IDENTIFICATION* card, for crying out loud.

It makes processing the bad guys a whole lot easier.
