You answered the question, in a way.
Instead of objecting to ANY patdown searches, we should be objecting to RANDOM selection of children, babies, nuns, and men in wheelchairs.
We should be objecting to the MUSLIMS getting a pass on searches.
We should object to Airport Security escorting potential terrorists AROUND checkpoints and searches. (Like they did with the underwear bomber, even though it wasn't in the US, how do you know they don't do the same here?).
OUR POLICE conduct the SAME type of searches. Do you object to that?
Probably not.
But, they don't select cars at RANDOM and conduct searches.
good points, ucansee2.. better more accurate profiling seems to be a good start.
Thank you.
