in this day and age, it's not nice to say things like this

Political Correctness in action ...

[bmwcyle]

Profile, profile, profile,......

[henkster]

It's their best weapon. Make us feel guilty for hating them. Then they have us at their mercy, of which they have none.

[conservativebabe]

Exactly.

I feel bad for the guy. I have often thought about the airport people you now must know that they had contact with these guys and how they must feel about that.

Goes to show you, always follow your gut instinct.

"I said to myself, 'If this guy doesn't look like an Arab terrorist, then nothing does.' Then I gave myself a mental slap, because in this day and age, it's not nice to say things like this,"

Yep. PC and the ACLU types made him think that way.

I saw this guy interviewed last night on the news and my heart just broke for him! Can you imagine how he must feel? How sad.

I don't hear Senator Kerry expressing his guilty feelings for ignoring the information he was given (pre-9/11) about faults in the security at Logan airport.

[Buckeye McFrog]

but if he had spoken up, his life would have been an endless parade of lawyers, "civil rights" officials, press attacks and sensitivity training sessions...what was he to do?

I also feel bad for the Hindus and Sikhs, who are not part of this madness but are often mistaken for Jihadis.

[Supernatural]

More than 3,000 dead on 9/11 and, to this day, no one held accountable. The government and its lackeys do not permit society to hold them accountable.

" a skull on a poison bottle." Great image !

[sheana]

and yet.... when my husband who had on an FDNY shirt, myself, blonde & blue eyes, and a friend who is blonde & blue eyes and 56, recently went on vacation....we were pulled out of line at LAX while middle easterners walked right thru.

Yeah we really look like terrorists.

He could have been prosecuted if he followed his instincts. It's the law that is the problem - and the law has not changed! Thank Norman Minetta.

"Tuohey : "You've checked in hundreds of Arabs and Hindus and Sikhs, and you've never done that"

IDIOT!!!

That is exactly why this is not racial profiling. You suspected them because they looked suspicious not because they were simply mid-easterners.

[Ruth A.]

Thankfully, few of us will ever make an error of judgment of this magnitude. Unfortunately, rather than learning from this (the value of instincts, profiling, concerns, etc.), the PC choice has been to encourage it to happen again.

"I said to myself, 'If this guy doesn't look like an Arab terrorist, then nothing does.' Then I gave myself a mental slap, because in this day and age, it's not nice to say things like this," Tuohey told the Maine Sunday Telegram.

Political Correctness Indoctrination facilitated the hijackers on their way.
