Contour Enthusiasts Group Archives Forums General Common Interests NYC Officials Call for Racial Profiling

Profiling is definitely needed and makes sense. The only thing I see wrong in this thread is that people keep calling it racial profiling. In actuality it's TERRORIST profiling. It just happens to be a fact that alost ALL the terrorism in the world over the last decade, with few exceptions, happens to have been perpetrated by Islamic radical fundamentalist extremists. It makes perfect sense to devote more of our security resources to the group of people who attacked us on 9/11 and who attacked Spain and London, I could go on, but you get the point. If any of our peace loving Islamic bretheren (the majority, I'm sure) don't like this, then instead of yelling at us, they should spend their energy yelling at the extremists who are comitting and financing the terrorist acts. Don't see that happening, do you? If it was tall white folks of Danish descent (like me), I'd EXPECT to be stopped every time I took mass transit or flew. I, personally, thank the folks for helping me feel safe every time I'm searched.
