Politically correct APB:

Wanted for questioning: 10 homosapiens in connection with airline hijacking plot, no other indentifying characteristics legally available.

exactly why they may be the guys to worry about...

I understand what you are saying Tommy.

In part I agree. You should never focus on one danger so much that it excludes you from seeing other dangers.

But while people call it racism to profile, which I disagree with, it is an important tool that we shouldn't allow ourselves to deprived of.

Consider an example. You have a herd of sheep (I know, Doomie will be bothering you a lot now) and sheep start being killed.

Are you going to keep an eye out for wolves? You know from experience wolves are natural sheep killers. Or are you going to say I can't give the wolves any more attention than I do the cows in the next pasture, the Canadian Geese flying overhead, or the fish in the stream?

Of course if you look at the term "race", that's racism also.

Meanwhile your sheep are still in danger.

Here is the reply from my friend:

I had not heard of this flight, but I have been briefed by air marshals that the airline security system is being tested on a regular basis by young Arabic men.

Just a follow up on this. But this did indeed happen and the FBI did interview all 14 of these so called musicians and came up with nothing to support they were doing anything.

Heres the crazy part, it's just recently been discovered that all 14 of these men's Visas had expired prior to their flight on 327. Now the FBI made COPIES of their VISAS and didn't even bother to check the date!!:eek: Also in an interveiw from I beleive her name is Allie Patterson (the woman who wrote the original article) she said she called to follow up on this to see what they had found out and she discovered they didnt even bother to check the 'Musicians' musical cases.

I hope the government is just playing dumb and isn't really this inept.
