profiling

[furie]

a friend sent this to me:


Profiling

To ensure we Americans never
offend anyone -
particularly fanatics intent on
killing us (and
liberals), 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 mostly
between the ages of
17 and 40.

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 mostly
between the ages of
17 and 40.

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 mostly
between the ages of
17 and 40.

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 mostly
between the ages of
17 and 40.

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 mostly
between the ages of
17 and 40.

Hmmm ............. nope, ain't no
patterns here.

[sexy bastard]

I myself get profiled to many times for being to damn sexy =)~

the epitome of masculinity (yeah right)

[fatty]

being a minority i just have to say profiling sucks. that being said i say do it, cause if it's between someone getting offended and stopping a killer there's only one real choice.

it's just the racist assholes who abuse it that cause the trouble.

For the record, I would like to state that I was in the Port Authority Bus Terminal when the first plane hit, I cannot vouch for the whereabouts of Bugs, Daffy and Elmer at this time, though.
