Archie Bunker, long ago, offered the solution to skyjacking...arm ALL the passengers!

I'm still waiting for someone to explain why nail clippers are such dangerous weapons that they must be seized and not allowed on planes.

Neither did the DC Sniper. It is extremely hard to track/predict the actions of the "one-off" whackos. The whole point to profiling is to give a little extra "attention" to people that fall within the same age/name/race/gender/religion/whatever of those with a PATTERN of violence/terrorism.

Nor Ted Kaczynski.

Nor, apparently, the guy who sent the anthrax (and has never been found), at least if you believe the FBI's suspect list.

Nor Lucia Garofalo, caught with explosives at the Canadian border in '99

I suppose the list of non-profile terrorists is larger than the 'in profile' terrorists. Certainly seems that way at first glance.__

The fact that some replies here support the ethnic profiling of Muslim males between 17 and 40 is simply disgusting. Get real people, you named 12 events yet failed to relay any statistic as to about how many non-extremist Muslim males between the ages of 17-40. I'd venture a *conservative* guess of 99.99%

Nor did you relay any statistic as to the ethnicity and age of all other acts of terror that have happened over the time period you dealt with. You make it sound like all acts of terror were done by the said Muslims, because they were 12 out of your 12. But if you were to consider all acts of terror, these same 12 events would only account for a fraction of the total.

Please at least attempt to look at both sides so you can lessen your ignorance.

Yeah Klaucke, I'm with you. Frankly, I'm also amazed at the lack of outrage at this piece of crap offering by Mister Blueskyjaunte.

Amazing how a person (or persons) can be so blatantly paranoid and narrow-brained and still manage to function on a semi-independent basis. Ironically, it's scary to imagine that so many people allow fear rather than reason to drive their views and opinions.

But in fairness I guess I'd be paranoid too, if all the muslims were out to get me just because I'm rich and soooo good lookin'.

I think at least one of those personalities needs to be put on the 'terrorist hot list'

I mean, after all, look at the guy! He bears a striking resemblance to a convicted felon!

So explain to me this; The other examples mentioned some flacious some not, how many blew themselves up in the manner of sucide bombers that perpetrated 9/11 and countless attacks in Isreal and other places. DC sniper (John Mohamed, why exculde his name above he's muslem right) Dalhmer(WTF), Tim McVeigh, Ted Kysinzki (unibomber)?
