Nope, .........I really don't see a pattern here to
justify profiling, do you?
So, to ensure we Americans never offend anyone,
particularly fanatics intent on killing us, airport
security screeners will no longer be allowed to
profile certain people. They must conduct 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 winning former Governors.
Let's send this to as many people as we can so that
the Gloria Aldreds and other dunder headed attorneys
along with Federal Justices that want to thwart
common sense feel doubly ashamed of themselves. As
the writer of the award winning story Forest Gump so
aptly put it, "Stupid is as stupid does
