Help me sort this out in my mind please?

Undocumented immigrants are pouring across the border unchecked from violence ridden cities just across our border, while 70 year old women are electronically strip searched and forced to remove prosthetic breasts, to go to the grand kids house, children are scanned or groped to go to Disney world. We try to act like we don't have the foggiest idea what a terrorist looks like, in the name of political correctness. When does the charade stop? It makes my brain hurt. JS Mill, Ben Franklin... where are you now?

    That is what you call liberal America who refuses to practice profiling. The Israelis have mastered security screening and I realize that the number of airline passengers are quiet a lot more than that of Israel, but it certainly would create for jobs hiring El Al type screeners which will be paid for with all those millions of dollars being spent on full body scanners. America and Americans just have not recognize that the terrorists have already won, just look at what Americans are being put through because of terrorists threats.

    The floodgate opened up with the Patriot Act. And the Underwear bomber.

    Its so dangerous to assume we know what a terrorist looks like. The real terrorists understand that, thats why the WTC terrorists shaved their beards, went to strip clubs, and drank. So on one would say,' gee that guy never drinks and has a beard...he looks like a terrorist!'

    Bleach your hair blond, wear make up and a short skirt and you aren't a terrorist right? So if I'm a leader of a cell, I bleach my hair wear a mini-skirt get on a plane and blow it up with a smile and a bomb. Thanking the dumb Americans for thinking I'm stupid enough to wear a sign on my back for easy identification.
