Quote from Lucrum:
...I would too, if TSA would profile and pat down the ones most likely to be terrorists. But they're not. They're patting down the elderly, children and white business men. Pretty much everyone BUT who they should focus on. All because of ignorant stupid bleeding heart PC bullshit.
If they refuse to pat down the potential terrorists, what's the point of patting down everyone/anyone else?
It is imperative that
everyone be scrutinized.
Here's why:
If you stop searching white business men, for example, the bad guys (terrorists) will kidnap the child of the white business man.
Then, he will be instructed to go get on board a certain plane at a certain time.
Just before he gets on the plane he will be met by someone who will hand him a carry on bag with a bomb in it.
(Yes,
it is possible to slip a bomb into the secure area. I think we all agree on this, as evidenced by past events.)
Now, the white business man has the choice of boarding the plane with the bomb, or receiving his child's body late one night in a park somewhere.
What do you think will happen?
Yep...He's getting on the plane.
This is the type scenario that security agencies have to consider; whereas people on message boards don't.
People on message boards just like to post on the internet as though they are experts in any field that is currently being discussed.
Sorta like all the trading "experts" we have here on ET.
Or, sorta like if you started a thread on how to fly a certain aircraft and I came along and started trying to tell you how to do a preflight check.
I'd look pretty stupid, huh?
Since I don't know the first thing about an airplane.
But, I do know something about how to keep a bad guy off one.
