20:59 - This slope ain't that slippery

(top) link
Marcus forwards me the folowing e-mail, which reinforces the fact that there's a long way to go between security profiling and Naziism:

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, 85 year old Congressmen with metal hips, and Medal Of Honor winners.

Let's pause a moment and take the following test:

(a) The Smurfs
(b) Davy Jones
(c) The Little Mermaid
(d) Muslim males between the ages of 17 & 40

In 1985, TWA flight 847 was hijacked at Athens, and a US Navy diver was murdered by:

In 1988, Pan Am Flight 103 was bombed by:
