Profiling..........
To ensure we Americans never offend anyone - particularly
fanatics intent on killing us - airport screeners will
not be allowed to profile people. They will continue
random searches of 80-year-old women, little kids, airline
pilots with proper identification, Secret Service agents
who are members of the President's security detail and
85-year old Congressmen with metal hips.
Let's
pause a moment and take the following test.
In 1979, the U.S. embassy in Iran was taken over by:
(a) Norwegians from Ballard;
(b) Elvis;
(c) A tour bus full of 80-year-old women; or
(d) Muslim male extremists between the ages of 17 and
30.
In 1983, the U.S. Marine barracks in Beirut was blown
up by:
(a) A pizza delivery boy;
(b) Crazed feminists complaining that being able to
throw a grenade beyond its own burst radius was an unfair
and sexist requirement in basic training;
(c) Geraldo Rivera making up for a slow news day; or
(d) Muslim male extremists between the ages of 17 and
30.
In 1988, Pan Am Flight 103 was bombed by:
(a) Luca Brazzi, for not being given a part in "Godfather
2;"
(b) The Tooth Fairy;
(c) Butch and Sundance who had a few sticks of dynamite
left over from the train mission, or,
(d) Muslim male extremists between the ages of 17 and
30.
In 1998, the U.S. embassies in Kenya and Tanzania were
bombed by:
(a) Mr. Rogers;
(b) Hillary, to distract attention from Wild Bill's
women problems;
(c) The World Wrestling Federation to promote its next
villain:
"Mustapha the Merciless;" or
(d) Muslim male extremists between the ages of 17 and
30.
On 9/11/01, four airliners were hijacked and destroyed
by:
(a) Bugs Bunny, Wiley E. Coyote, Daffy Duck, and Elmer
Fudd.
(b) The Supreme Court of Florida trying to outdo their
attempted hijacking of the 2000 Presidential election;
(c) Mr. Bean,
(d) Muslim male extremists between the ages of 17 and
30.
Hmmm
