I don't understand the problem with profiling. All of the terrorist attacks are committed by young Muslim men. Anyone on an airplane with a young Muslim is doing some serious profiling no matter how politically correct their politics.
No reasonable person says all Muslims are terrorists. To the innocent Muslims who have to answer a couple more questions or submit to a patdown I say *sorry*, you don't want to die in an airplane either, do you?
Until blonde Southern Baptist women crash an airplane into a building I say wave them through security.
Same deal for men named John. Wave them through.
Someone needs to have the courage to enact policies which are effective and to hell with PC.
