So because some muslim extremists took the lives of 3,000 innocent americans we are justified in taking away the civil rights of 10 million or so innocent muslim americans. Sounds like good logic to me.

[MrBaggins]

Yep, damn straight... the civil rights of all of those muslims doesn't amount to the life of one of my friends, who happened to die in the WTC.

A very close friend/relative of mine was killed in a car accident. Cars kill way more people in an average year than are ever lost to Islamic terrorists. Perhaps we should make all cars illegal "because if it saves just one life...."

[MrBaggins]

Do the car manufacturers or these drivers have direct intentional motives for killing these people?

Baggins.

Suicide bombing is occuring in one small area of the world by people who share a religion and a viewpoint of occupied lands. Terrorist acts themselves span a wide variety of religious and political agendas. El Al's and IDF's "effective" tactics are a matter of debate when you consider the continuing pervasiveness of suicide attacks.

At the same time, who really suffers the most from profiling?

El Al seems to be very effective now, don't you think?

Thanks, I've been looking for an opportunity to use this smiley.

Christ on a pogo stick, people! Isn't it a little early to start scoring little political points with this, pro-gun or anti-gun, zero-tolerance or not zero-tolerance, ad naseum? Honestly, I expected better out of some of you.

You did? I guess I have less faith in Polytubbies that you do.

And yes, profiling only based on race is totally, 100%, just wrong.

And MrBaggins, your views that Muslim-Americans should be denied rights because a few extremists destroyed the WTC, is either a bad troll, or a very scary, prejudical statement.

You're not paranoid if they really are out to get you.

So the fact that one instance where it keeps control justifies instances where blatant racial profiling is used to keep track of undesireables? Driving while Black is a legitimate reason to be pulled over? How about being jailed indefinitely, without due process , by the INS for immigration violations because you fit the bill (read- are an arab).

[MrBaggins]

i should feel bad exactly, why?

[Jac de Molay]

You shouldn't feel bad at all. You should feel lucky.

[MrBaggins]

so you agree with me. Glad we cleared that up *winks*
